Our Vision, Mission and Ethos
Through our community values, academic focus and extensive enrichment opportunities, we believe that all young people at Sutton Valence School will be enabled to fulfil their potential. We want our students to be confident, tolerant and open-minded individuals who possess a love of learning and a strong set of values reflecting our principles as a Christian Foundation.
As the School prepares to celebrate its remarkable 450th anniversary next academic year, marking its founding in 1576 by William Lambe, we are thrilled to unveil a new strategic plan. This represents a recalibration of the School’s vision, mission and ethos. Supported by key strategic pillars, the School is well-positioned to continue thriving into the future.
The plan is intended to be aspirational and inspirational, while remaining pragmatic and realistic. A key focus is fostering a ‘One School Culture, Approach and Environment’, as the School celebrates this significant milestone and works to create a lasting legacy for future Suttonians.
