About Us

To ensure all Applemore students believe in themselves, respect others and show determination to be a success in the next stages of their lives, we as a school aim for all our students to have:

  • high attendance (96%+)
  • gain the knowledge and skills they need (English and Maths 4+ 65%, 5+ 45%, Progress 8 -0.2)
  • be equipped to face life's challenges and important decisions with confidence.

At Applemore, we are values-based and expect everyone to work to our core values; believe, respect and determination. Alongside these core values, we have developed an 'Applemore Standard' which we should expect each other to uphold all the time. Believe, respect and determination = success!

At Applemore, we promote the fundamental British values as part of our SMSC provision. These are: 

As a result, our students can demonstrate the following:

  • an understanding of how citizens can influence decision-making through the democratic process;
  • an appreciation that living under the rule of law protects individual citizens and is essential for their wellbeing and safety;
  • an understanding that there is a separation of power between the executive and the judiciary, and that while some public bodies such as the police and the army can be held to account through Parliament, others such as the courts maintain independence;
  • an understanding that the freedom to choose and hold other faiths and beliefs is protected in law;
  • an acceptance that other people having different faiths or beliefs to oneself (or having none) should be accepted and tolerated, and should not be the cause of prejudicial or discriminatory behaviour; and
  • an understanding of the importance of identifying and combatting discrimination.
