Always be the best you can be! At Banchory we are committed to providing all children with opportunities to be confident, connected, curious and creative learners so they can thrive in the 21st century. We are very proud of our values of togetherness, kindness, respect and ambition and strive to embed these into the life and work of the school through the Banchory Bees of being kind, ready to learn, safe, where you are supposed to be and the best you can be. Children’s health and wellbeing is at the heart of everything we do. All staff are committed to creating a kind, nurturing and safe environment where all children can be listened to and supported. We understand that strong, effective relationships are essential for maintaining a positive ethos and establishing the best environment for excellent learning and teaching. Our team are passionate about getting it right for all children where we recognise and celebrate achievements for all. We monitor and evaluate our learning and teaching to ensure we are providing meaningful, engaging and exciting learning experiences, which allow all children the opportunity to meet their full potential and be the best they can be. We work closely with all partners to ensure our learners have access to an extended range of learning opportunities, which develop skills for learning, work and life.
