EXCELLENCE ...Growing to be the best you can be
Excellent facilities As the school has grown, we have built new facilities to create a superb site where classrooms are equipped with the latest technology to support learning. Our sports facilities, study areas and social spaces for students have all been redeveloped to create a school we are all proud to be part of. We continue to upgrade and innovate to ensure that we have the best possible resources and facilities to help our students thrive and achieve.
Excellent staff By delivering excellent lessons, our staff provide our students with opportunities to broaden and deepen their understanding and develop their wider skills. We know that excellent teachers make learning an engaging and interesting process and we constantly reflect and share ideas to develop our approach to teaching and learning at Leventhorpe.
COMMITMENT...Taking
opportunities and being passionate about learning The positive culture of the school is built on high levels of commitment from staff, students and parents. Our staff take pride in their work and will always ensure every task is done as well as possible. Our students demonstrate commitment to the school, to each other and to their own learning and progress. Our parents commit to supporting the learning of their children at home and in supporting the ethos and values of the school. Strong commitment makes the school a busy, vibrant, purposeful and productive place to be.
RESPECT
Caring about each other and appreciating individuality Respect underpins the relationships between students, staff and parents. Positive relationships enable the school to function efficiently with a sense of common purpose. We encourage students to develop self respect, to take pride in positive achievement and to take care of their own physical and mental health. Our rules are simple and are built around showing respect to others. Respect for the school environment and facilities develops a sense of belonging. It is important that our students are proud of their Leventhorpe identity, acting as role models in school and in the local community.
Care All students are supported to achieve their best Our pastoral care is a strength of the school. Tutors and Heads of Year know students well and respond quickly to any concerns and issues that students face. Our staff are experienced and skilled in working with young people to help them navigate through the social and emotional issues that are becoming increasingly challenging in the modern world. We understand the importance of positive mental health for our young people and the impact this has on student development, learning and achievement. We teach our students how to recognise concerns and strategies to help tackle issues.
Community We are a community We work together as staff, parents and students with the common purpose of providing the best for our students. We value our relationships and look for ways to positively enage and come together. If you share our vision and values, we hope that you want to become part of the Leventhorpe community; a very special and inspirational place for young people to be.
