Our Mission and Values

Our school is built on four core values.

Our values  permeate through everything we do and guide us at Hovingham. Everyone, staff and children are  expected and encouraged to live and work through these values, they are our guiding principles in all that we do.

British values permeate throughout our school curriculum and support the development of the whole child. This can be seen through our strong and rich Personal Development Curriculum.
