We are a supportive, safe and aspirational school with a proud heritage and ambitious vision to build a thriving and inclusive community.
Our vision for Applegarth is that:
- Our learners will be confident and aspirational individuals, who have high expectations of themselves and are courageous risk-takers, ready for the next step in their lives.
- High standards will be achieved through a rich, contextually-relevant and exciting curriculum that provides memorable experiences through inspirational teaching, high-quality educational visits and input from experts.
- Pupils from all backgrounds, contexts and starting points will have achieved exemplary academic progress and personal development, where talents have been quickly identified and effectively nurtured.
- Our school community will be able to celebrate their own unique qualities whilst showing respect and care for the diverse and ever-changing world around them.
- We will be proud to say that we have fulfilled the purpose of being the model school at the heart of our town and county.
