Ethos
We endeavor to create a school where every student, parent, carer and member of staff feels a strong sense of belonging to our learning community. Every student and member of staff can achieve more than they ever dreamed possible at Toot Hill School, flourishing in a culture of opportunity. By working together as a truly inclusive team, we will create a school that is truly transformational for all.
Every student is entitled to access a broad and ambitious curriculum at Toot Hill, regardless of their starting point or previous life experience. Our curriculum empowers every student to dictate their own future and determine their legacy. Our students experience a transformational learning journey over time that develops them into well-informed, independent, confident and responsible young people who are intellectually curious and have a thirst for life-long learning. They grow into creative and independent thinkers, capable of challenging the status quo.
We strive for all students to leave Toot Hill School as proud and active members of society, empowered to contribute positively to their community and the wider world throughout their lives.
