We send letters home to parents and carers with information about the curriculum in each year group every term, which you can find on the year group pages of our web site.

Values

Values are things we believe in, that help us to make decisions about how to behave.  They are the principles that guide our lives.  The curriculum at Fairholme nurtures and promotes many values including respect, honesty, responsibility, kindness, self-belief and aspiration.  Through these values, our curriculum develops each child's uniqueness, ambition and self-worth as an individual.
