Our primary aim is that all pupils develop flexible, life-long learning skills that can be applied in different situations so that pupils:

• See the value of learning, and develop their knowledge, skills and understanding through curiosity to know more.
• Learn to be adaptable, to solve problems in a variety of situations, to work independently and as members of a team.
• Develop the ability to make reasoned judgements and choices, based on interpretation and evaluation of relevant information from a variety of sources.
• Develop creativity and use imagination to explore ideas and ask questions. 
• Be reflective by evaluating their learning and progress, and set targets for their own success.
• Be able to self-manage through taking responsibility for their own actions and having a proactive attitude.
• Be confident in tackling new types of learning, and have openness to new ideas.
• Be confident communicators, able to explain ideas and thoughts with a variety of audiences.
• Develop tolerance, respect and appreciation of the feelings and capabilities of others.
• Acquire a set of moral values, such as honesty, sincerity, personal responsibility, on which to base their own behaviour.
