Looking to the future, our vision is to be a larger, more successful and more diverse family of schools and settings. Stour Vale member schools and settings will serve their communities by providing the excellent education and care which ensures both strong academic progress and a broad range of opportunities for personal development. Both individually and collectively, member schools and settings will also have a significant positive impact on the wider education system.
