Our Values

Ethos

Visitors at Towers Junior School often comment on the positive ethos and warmth that permeates the school. We pride ourselves on providing a safe, secure environment where good relationships and a strong sense of community ensure that every individual is known, valued, encouraged and nurtured to be the best that they can be.

Beliefs

We believe that if learning dispositions of persistence, flexibility of thought, intellectual risk taking, enjoyment of being challenged, and reflectiveness are nurtured and secured through a focus on the 5R's (reasoning, responsibility, resilience, resourcefulness and reflectiveness) our pupils have the capacity to become independent lifelong learners.
