As is recognised by the Trust, Ditton Lodge serves a specific community and realises that, as a school, we have ambitions and objectives of our own.

At Ditton Lodge we share a common purpose – to ensure that all of our pupils become their own success story and achieve their dreams. We aspire to go ‘above and beyond’ for our pupils daily in our quest to offer an expectational education.
Ambition & Aspiration
Pupil’s outcomes, personal achievements and creating successful, lifelong learners is our key focus. We offer everyone exciting opportunities and possibilities to learn through a unique curriculum, stimulating learning environments and positive learning behaviours and habits. Our enrichment offer immerses our children in culture, history, awe and wonderment.
We have no ceiling on our achievements- we aim high.
Inclusion & Support
Children’s needs and providing an equitable education are central to all we do. We offer a child-centred inclusive approach to learning helping pupils to be driven by ambition and aspirations. We adapt our teaching and scaffold through a range of accessibility options including the use of iPads and a wellness curriculum.
Teamwork and a culture of shared responsibility and kindness for all is key to our success. Honesty and trust are essential enabling us to be supportive yet offer opportunity for challenge.
Innovation & Challenge
At Ditton Lodge we are constantly moving forward, learning and growing from all that we do. We are research-driven and use a disciplined-enquiry approach. Solution seeking and innovative thinking is part of our daily routine. As part of our journey we are committed to a positive mind set approach where we embrace ‘if you can think it, you can achieve it’. We don’t limit the challenge-we challenge the limits.
Celebrate (Shine)
We are proud of Ditton Lodge and all our school has to offer. We celebrate our achievements at every opportunity. As part of Unity Schools Partnership we thrive and grow amongst our team of schools- extending, developing and sharing our expertise.
We consistently revisit the 8 secrets of success, Chris Quigley. We have also added our own words: work hard, concentrate, improve, understand others, try new things, imagine, push yourself, stamina, shine, 100%.
