At Stobhillgate First School, our challenge is to ensure we provide equality of opportunity for all children by ensuring children from low starting points are provided with the best possible support and interventions to enable them to succeed whilst also providing an aspirational challenge for pupils who come to school more socially and academically ready.

Our defining values are:

Inspiration
We love making learning fun and strive every day to inspire and motivate. We are creative, enjoy trying new things, and learn from mistakes in order to develop resilience.
Excellence
We have high expectations in everything we do. We seek to achieve our potential and help others achieve theirs. We celebrate progress and good behaviour and are proud of what Stobhillgate stands for.
Collaboration
We work collaboratively as a united team. We create an atmosphere of trust. We support pupils, parents and the wider community and promote the importance of rights and responsibilities.
Empathy
We are kind, compassionate, respectful and value diversity. We develop the whole person by seeking balance between academic, emotional, physical, moral and spiritual development.

It is our responsibility to ensure that our vision and principles are central to everything we do.
