  • Personal Goals

    We believe education is about more than academic achievement. It is also about helping every individual develop the skills, qualities and confidence they need to thrive in school, in their community and in the wider world.

    Our Personal Goals are woven throughout learning and school life. They encourage us to think about how we learn, how we treat others and how we respond to the opportunities and challenges we encounter.

    Thinker

    We are curious and thoughtful. We ask questions, explore ideas and consider different possibilities. We use what we know to solve problems, make connections and develop new understanding.

    Resilient

    We keep going when things are difficult. We understand that mistakes and challenges are an important part of learning, and we develop the confidence and determination to try again.

    Respectful

    We value ourselves, others and the world around us. We listen to different viewpoints, appreciate individual differences and treat everyone with kindness, fairness and consideration.

    Ethical

    We think carefully about our choices and their impact on others. We aim to do what is right, act with honesty and integrity, and take responsibility for our words and actions.

    Communicator

    We share our thoughts, ideas and feelings clearly and confidently. We listen carefully to others and learn to communicate effectively in different ways and for different audiences.

    Adaptable

    We are open to change, new experiences and different ways of doing things. We can adjust our thinking and approach when circumstances change and approach unfamiliar situations with confidence.

    Empathetic

    We seek to understand how other people may think and feel. We show compassion, kindness and care, and recognise that everyone has their own experiences and perspectives.

    Collaborator

    We work positively with others to achieve shared goals. We contribute our ideas, listen to and value the contributions of others, share responsibility and understand that we can achieve more when we work together.

    Developing Skills for Life

    Our Personal Goals help learners become confident, thoughtful and responsible individuals. By developing these qualities every day, we aim to equip everyone with skills that will support them throughout their education and beyond.
