Values and vision 

Craigholme School for Girls, through its smaller class sizes and single-sex educational approach, aims to offer comprehensive personalised support for its students within a close-knit and inclusive environment. The school intends to ensure that every one of its pupils is treated and valued as an individual, giving them every opportunity to progress and achieve not just academically but also across sports, music and the arts. 

Sports are believed to play a key role in developing social skills, building teamwork and improving fitness. Craigholme School also recognises the social importance of music and the positive effects it can have on academic performance. All pupils are encouraged to take part in choral singing throughout their time at the school.
