Personal Development
Curriculum Aims
We believe our responsibility to educate students extends beyond their academic studies. Our Personal Development curriculum is carefully designed to instil our core values, ensure our students understand the wider world and their place within it and enrich their wider experience so that they are well placed to thrive in modern society.
We insist on a curriculum that removes the notion of disadvantage, encourages resilience, provides equity and equality of opportunity and instils independence and aspiration in our students, so they can become hard working, respectful, tolerant and compassionate citizens who are ready to make a difference.
