Each section of our School shares the same fundamental values for its pupils. Clearly, they have to be suitably mediated for the different age groups, but they provide a clear statement of the ideals that drive us in our work. We hold as our values:
- The imperative that everything that goes on in the School is for the benefit of our pupils. Their interests are always paramount;
- The need for every individual to be valued for her or his own qualities;
- The requirement that every member of our community is enjoined to respect her or himself, others, her or his own property, and the property of others;
- The belief that education is a liberating and life-enhancing experience;
- The necessity of building mutually supportive relationships within and between all the diverse constituent parts of our community;
- That we should have expectations of everyone in our community;
- The virtues of patience, courtesy, security in the expression of ideas, safety from ridicule or temper, fairness and tolerance.
