The values below were constructed in consultation with all of our stakeholders. Eventually, the children of the school were asked to vote for the final values that best represent how we aspire to be here at Mill Mead. They decided that we are committed to ensuring everyone at Mill Mead is:

Honest Respectful Resilient Kind Brave Responsible Reflective

In order to ensure these are being taught and promoted, we have appointed some of our wonderful Y6 children as ‘Values Ambassadors’. These children will be responsible for promoting the values throughout the school and especially during assemblies. In addition the weekly Head’s Awards are focussed on the values and the winners will be awarded a ‘Values Badge’. 

We have associated each of these values with a colour. Each class has a ‘Values Tree’ and children can collect house credits each time they demonstrate one of the values. This achievement is celebrated by them placing a corresponding leaf on the Value Tree.

In order to ensure parents have the opportunity to discuss our values at home too, when children place a leaf on their tree, they also added a corresponding sticker to their house point charts, located in their reading record. We encourage parents to review these with their children and praise them for showing our values.
