Pupils have strong study skills, which develop their capacity to synthesise information from a range of sources and hypothesise accurately.
Pupils make a strong contribution to the life of the school and the wider community.
Principles and values are actively promoted which facilitate the personal development of pupils as responsible, tolerant and law-abiding citizens.
