Aspire values

Our stakeholders have discussed, collaborated and developed this thinking to create six core values that we believe, ensure our students aspire and achieve success. We believe that this creates a strong learning environment that enhances personal and academic achievement whilst also developing students' social and relationship skills that will last throughout their lives.

Our curriculum is developed with our Aspire values in mind and we recognise and reward students when they demonstrate them.
