A little bit about Chellaston Academy...
Your child is at the heart of everything we do and the school’s vision of creating ‘mature, confident and successful global citizens who can thrive in an everchanging world’ is nurtured through our shared values of Integrity, Care and Excellence.
We believe that academic outcomes are important however, we do not measure the success of our students by their examination results alone. We believe developing the whole person to be vitally important as well. Students access a balanced curriculum, and we continually strive to develop characteristics such as self-confidence, self-belief and self-esteem and make sure individual talent is recognised and nurtured. We believe that when the school, parents/carers and students share high expectations every child will achieve great things. This includes having an excellent attitude centred on respect, high standards of appearance, good manners, full attendance and punctuality.
We believe that Chellaston Academy is a vibrant and successful school where all students thrive through our shared principles of Question, Explore, Give and Succeed.
•Question – All students are given the opportunity to question who they are and why they want to be; to question their understanding and their actions. They learn how to question in a considered way, and then listen to the response.
•Explore – At Chellaston we give students opportunities and experiences, both in and beyond the classroom, educating the whole child and afforded them, looking for new ways to accomplish their goals, examining others’ values and beliefs, and exploring the world around them.
•Give – At Chellaston our staff and students are expected to give their very best in all that they do; they give their time and experience to help others, always giving equal respect to all.
•Succeed – We are a successful school. Success is celebrated and prompted with all members in our community. We want all of our students to succeed – individually and as part of a team – to be courageous and to succeed with good spirit and humility, developing resilience and character to succeed, even if at first, they fail.
