Our Vision and Ethos

School Vision

To create an outstanding learning environment, which meets the needs of all learners and promotes the best possible outcomes for everyone.

To ensure that the children attending our school receive the very best deal when it comes to their education.

School Motto

To develop ambitious learners today, for tomorrow.

Whilst we are proud of our recent achievements, we recognise that Ellis Guilford School can be even better.

We believe it is vitally important that students gain the best academic qualifications and develop the right personal skills and qualities to enable them to succeed both at school and in life.

We expect our students to be in school every day, on time. We want them to take responsibility for their learning by bringing the correct equipment and being well presented.
