Vision

Our vision ‘Life in all its fullness’ is taken from the book of John and these words were spoken by Jesus. At St Aidan's, every pupil is valued and has a rightful place within our community. We recognise that every individual is unique and has different skills, talents and abilities. We are committed to ensuring that every individual has the opportunity to thrive in their own distinctive way. Our aim is to ensure that all members of our school community achieve their full God given potential academically, socially, personally and spiritually. This is what Jesus wanted: for us to live life to the full.

French Vision

We aim to create the very best Linguists. We challenge students to think, act and speak like those working in the field would. We do this by equipping all our students with the knowledge and skills to thrive and succeed in language learning; encouraging and inspiring them with quality first teaching, broadening their awareness of other countries and communities and providing opportunities for participation in a broad range of linguistic and cultural educational experiences.
