The Calthorpe Way

We speak and write regularly to our community about our values and vision for Calthorpe Park. ‘The Calthorpe Way’ reinforces and crystalises these values by clarifying our expectations for behaviour and attitudes and focusing on what they should look like in the day-to-day life of our school.
