Values and vision

Our vision is to provide learning that ensures everyone has the skills to be Versatile, the opportunities to exceed their Aspirations, the knowledge to be Learned, the empathy to be Understanding, the enthusiasm to be Engaged and the encouragement to be Determined. Our community is always VALUED.

This vision can only be realised by adhering to our five core beliefs:

• We believe every child wants to be successful
• That there are no barriers to learning
• That there are no excuses for poor progress
• That we get what we expect
• That learning is our core purpose

Our aim is that a student from Chantry will have the experiences, opportunities and education so that they are indistinguishable from students graduating from grammar or independent schools. We not only want an outstanding school, we want students that are outstanding so that they stand out for all the right reasons.
