At Catton Grove Primary School, we have incorporated 11 ‘Core Values’ into our curriculum in order to strengthen the culture and ethos of the school and to help create a strong community identity.

We focus on one of these Core Values each month through our whole school assemblies and Core Value challenges that we set the children.
