Values and vision
The Catholic faith is fundamental to Bonus Pastor Catholic College’s work. The school day begins with an act of worship, either in tutor groups or in year group and house assemblies. Prayer time in tutor groups is often organised and led by the students themselves, and all these times of prayer are related to the school’s "theme of the week".
The secondary school’s lay Chaplain is available to meet with students on a one-to-one basis, and provides additional pastoral support for all members of the school. Bonus Pastor Catholic College is proud of the fact that British values are at the heart of its ethos. Areas in which these values are expounded and embedded include citizenship days, the curriculum, the house system, house assemblies, and links with other institutions.
