Value strengths in each other;
Work within agreed policies of the school;
Create a happy, caring and safe school;
Encourage children to think for themselves, ask questions and find answers;
Create an environment of trust.

School policies are in place to ensure that all children are safe and safeguarded at Castleton, following Government guidance, "Keeping Children Safe in Education" (January 2022).
