Our School Values & Vision — What Makes Brede Primary Special!

At Brede Primary School, we believe learning is about growing the whole child — not just in the classroom, but in life too! Our school values guide everything we do and help shape the amazing young people our children become.

Our Core Values

Responsibility | Inquisitiveness | Confidence | Inspiration | Respect

  • Proud of who they are with strong self-esteem
  • Growing in independence every day
  • Equipped to stay safe and navigate the world with confidence

An Inspired and Inquisitive Learner

  • Curious and eager to explore the world around them
  • Creative thinkers who love to innovate and try new ideas
  • Not afraid to make mistakes — because that’s how we learn!
  • Empowered to dream big and chase their passions

A Responsible and Respectful Citizen

  • Feeling safe, cared for, and aware of their own wellbeing
  • Caring members of our school and wider community
  • Good listeners who respect different opinions and ideas

Our Golden Threads

Everything we do is woven together by our Golden Threads — these and our values bind us together.

  • Diversity and Inclusion — celebrating everyone’s unique self
  • Valuing Individuality — encouraging children to be their true selves
  • Friendship and Community — building strong, caring relationships
  • The Environment — caring for our world inside and outside school
  • Happy Memories — creating joyful experiences that last a lifetime

At Brede, these values don’t just live on paper — they’re in the laughter in our playground, the teamwork in our classrooms, and the kindness in every smile.
