At Aitkenhead, we promote the values of respect, responsibility, achievement and happiness in a safe and inclusive environment for all. These values were agreed after an extensive consultation with the pupils of the school and members of the parent forum. In class, the children receive recognition from their teacher and we celebrate the fulfilment of these values at our weekly assemblies. To enable the children to understand and remember our values, we have mascot characters which were designed by children in the school. These are: Happy Hetty, Achieving Ava, Responsible Robbie, Respectful Ryan, Safe Sam and Inclusive Ian.
Our school motto is Achieve, Play, Shine.
