Vision and Values

We are a diverse community of schools whose vision is to work collaboratively together to provide the young people in our care with the knowledge, skills and qualities they need to make a positive difference in the world.  We want all our pupils and staff to feel included, valued and supported, so that they are able to achieve more than they ever believed possible.  Our schools will be schools of choice in their local areas, the wellbeing of our staff will be protected and our pupils will become scholars who are able to meet the challenges of the changing world – whatever those may be.

The shared values of the Scholars’ Education Trust family are summed up in our ACE:

• Achievement in academic, artistic, sporting, cultural and other forms with a focus on teaching and learning.
• Care for students, staff and others beyond the school community.
• Excellence in standards, manners, honesty, personal integrity and uniform.

The ACE underpins everything that we do and provides a secure basis for all we strive to accomplish.
