Values
Getting the ethos and environment just right for learning is so important in a school and one thing that supports this is at Chilcote is a sequence of twenty two values that we focus on each month over two years.
For the academic year 2022-2023, whilst our values remain relevant, we will be focusing on the Ten Keys to Happier Living as part of our Wellbeing strategy.
