Ethos

Aims of the School
Within a caring school community we aim to help all pupils to develop intellectually, socially, physically and morally.

In seeking to achieve this aim we recognise the need to work in partnership with parents. In particular, the school seeks:

  1. To ensure that each pupil is known and valued as a person in his or her own right.

  2. To develop the full potential of every pupil by offering as wide a range of courses as possible which cater for all levels of ability and allow the range of choice needed to accommodate individual interests and aptitudes.

  3. To help pupils achieve the highest possible standards in classwork and other activities, including external examinations.

  4. To maintain a climate which promotes good working relationships from which pupils can derive possible positive attitudes and sound values based on principles of mutual cooperation, toleration and consideration of others.

  5. To help pupils develop personally and socially, and to acquire the self-discipline and sense of responsibility they require to face the demands of young adulthood.

  6. To assist pupils achieve their career ambitions by providing advance on appropriate choice of subjects, courses of study and career routes.

  7. To promote good relationships between the school, home and community and to develop links to our mutual benefit.
