At Nether Edge Primary School, school life is shaped by our shared values and our belief in the very best for every child.
Our SHAPE ethos underpins everything we do and helps children to be:
Safe
Happy and healthy
Achieving their potential
Playing a positive part in school life
Excited by learning every day
The Nether Edge Way
The Nether Edge Way describes how we work together as a school community. It reflects approaches that are grounded in educational research, shaped by our local context and proven to work well for our children. High expectations and a clear focus on what is best for each child sit at the heart of this approach.
The Nether Edge 5
We also live out the Nether Edge 5, which guide behaviour and attitudes across the school:
Show kindness always
Show that manners matter
Show STAR in our learning
Walk like champions
Take pride in all that we do
Together, these values create a calm, caring and purposeful environment where children feel supported, valued and able to thrive.

Leadership roles include:
- Reader leaders
