Mission Statement
Our mission is to lead a community of learners who enjoy an ability to think creatively, critically and innovatively; who possess a strong sense of responsibility for the school, for the community and for the environment and who have the will to use these skills not only for the benefit of themselves but also for the good of the wider world.
This is the ethos of the school: looking forward to the future, strengthened by the tradition in which we stand; nurturing the gifts of individuals for the good of all.
AIMS
We are a learning organisation. We believe that when people learn they change and grow. To that end we aim:
- To provide high quality education through progressive and forward-thinking teaching.
- To provide learning experiences which are enjoyable, stimulating and challenging and which encourage critical and innovative thinking.
- To foster fruitful relationships between the School and our partners in the community.
- To provide the appropriate and accessible resources for effective learning and teaching.
- To nurture in all a sense of responsibility for the School, for the community and the environment for the benefit of their own future and the future of the world.
AS A SCIENCE SCHOOL WE WILL:
- Raise achievement, knowledge and understanding in mathematics and science through extensive curriculum provision, effectively monitoring progress, making available diverse and varied enrichment opportunities and developing and sharing good teaching practice.
- Increase awareness of the importance of mathematics and science within society and nurture the intellectual skills and ethical integrity required for participation in these areas in higher education and beyond.
We believe that the only way to achieve these aims is to provide a rich programme of development activities for all members of the school to give them the skills to further their own learning and the learning of others.
