“Our decision to follow the principles of VbE stemmed from the belief that it would support us in our aim to develop a community of resilient learners, who work their hardest to achieve well across a broad range of skills and knowledge. It also, we felt, had the potential to unite us in a common philosophy for our whole school community which, in turn, would strengthen our ethos and improve team work and well-being.”
