Ethos

Hilltop School is a vibrant, stimulating and supportive community in which pupils and staff value themselves and others.​

We aim to challenge, motivate and empower individuals with the skills and knowledge for a life beyond school.​

We want the students and staff of Hilltop School to be both aspirational and inspirational.

We endeavour to ensure that every child’s individual needs are met through a range of different curriculum pathways and access to a wide variety of educational and therapeutic activities.

Hilltop School is part of the Nexus Multi Academy Trust and as such we believe in the over-arching trust ethos of striving to ensure that every student becomes “the best that they can be”.
