We are curious, unique and together

Diocese of Gloucester Academy Trust

Whiteshill Primary School is a member of the Diocese of Gloucester Academy Trust. We joined in and since then the school has gone from strength to strength, achieving an Ofsted judgement of Good in May 2018 with their support. Although the Trust is a Christian organisation, Whiteshill Primary is a community primary school.

As you can see, the Trust’s vision to enable all to flourish, is entirely in line with our own vision at Whiteshill. Their values underpin all they do and the decisions they take for all the children in the Trust, including those at our school.  There core principles which underpin this vision are as follows:

  • We aspire to be the best we can be in an ever-changing environment – providing opportunities for all to flourish.
  • Within our DGAT family we cherish everyone as individuals; appreciating and celebrating diversity.
  • We act with integrity; we are open to challenge and we are reflective about our practice.
  • We treat everyone with dignity and respect.
  • Through collaboration, in a nurturing community, we grow, learn and achieve.
