Core Values
Strength in demonstrating curiosity and love of learning, employing a ‘have a go’ attitude and working effectively with and alongside others.
Knowledge in knowing how you learn best, how to actively engage in the learning process in order to make the most of every learning opportunity, and how to apply learning to real life situations.
Resilience in being responsive and taking courageous steps when needed, bouncing back in the face of unexpected challenges, and working within the ‘stretch zone’ for learning.
