- 12. Values, Beliefs andPrinciples Our teaching is aspirational and must enable our students to acquire 21st Century economically valuable skills for employment locally, nationally or internationally. We prepare our young people for success and wellbeing in an uncertain, rapidly changing future. Additionally, we encourage them in becoming happy and healthy and know how to lead fulfilling lives as active global citizens. Underpinning all our practice is the belief that we must educate life-long learners to be literate, numerate and possess ICT skills. Our students need to learn how to build and maintain relationships with others, work productively in teams and communicate effectively. We need to teach students how to be problem-solvers, how to take responsibility and make decisions and how to be flexible, adaptable and willing to learn new skills. We aim to support our students to develop creatively in all areas of the curriculum: being able to conceptualise and imagine, create and make and be able to reflect on their work and refine it. Above all, we strive to encourage Learning to Learn skills so that our students become lifelong learners. We understand that teaching and learning is not restricted to the classroom but happens throughout the school day - in all contexts and situations - involves many different “teachers” (including parents, LSAs, midday supervisors, student guidance managers and others) and continues at home.
