Our approach is underpinned by a belief that learning transforms lives, that everyone can achieve through commitment, dedication and relentless pursuit towards excellence. **Our Values** **Information and Knowledge** **Scholarship** “A good head and good heart are always a formidable combination. But when you add to that a literate tongue or pen, then you have something very special.” - Nelson Mandela Why do we value Scholarship? So that we can be curious; ask searching questions; debate rationally; develop deep thinking and independence skills and ultimately become a hard-working member of the wider community. **Challenge** “Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” - Robert F. Kennedy Why do we value Challenge? So that we can respond to failure as a part of the learning process. Challenge teaches us to be resilient, confident, and motivated; we relish challenge and difficulty as it forces us to think, work harder and be better than we are today. **Ambition** "The only limit to the height of your achievements is the reach of your dreams and your willingness to work hard for them” - Michelle Obama Why do we value Ambition? So that we can make our dreams our reality. We want more because we have worked hard enough to earn more. We are not just part of the local community; we are part of the global community. **Leadership** “It is the obligation of the ruler to continually renew himself in order to renew the people by his example” - Confucius Why do we value Leadership? So that we can be responsible for our actions; contribute positively to the community and the environment. We live up to our civic responsibility but most of all, we take charge of our life and bring about positive change to ourselves and the world around us. **Empathy** "Learning is a result of listening...and empathy grows as we learn" - Alice Miller Why do we value Empathy? So that we can challenge social injustice and participate fully in society. It is equally essential if we are to lead full and meaningful lives in both our personal and, later on, our professional lives. **Contribute to diversity and choice in educational provision in Hertford and Ware** - Develop interests, skills and qualities that will help young people make the transition from adolescence to adulthood - To develop in each student an enjoyment of learning and a commitment to learning as a lifelong process. - To offer high quality professional development for all staff to ensure the school’s continuous improvement and to extend personal and professional satisfaction. **A Caring Communit
