Our co-operative values
Self-help – we help people to help themselves. We actively encourage student leadership in learning as well as in voluntary roles within the school structure. Students learn to be independent and interdependent learners and develop a positive approach to challenges.
Self-responsibility – we take responsibility for, and answer to our actions. Democratic participation brings with it accountability and responsibility .We instil confidence in our learners and allow them to be responsible members of society. Students are encouraged to develop a strong commitment to own learning.
Democracy – we give our members a say in the way we run our school. Within the school we operate a number of student voice groups who contribute to the development of the school. Through active contribution and fair exchange of views members exercise their rights and participate in decision making.
Equality –the school is open to all. We do not select our students and encourage everyone to participate fully in the curriculum
Equity –we ensure fairness. In lessons students are expected to participate, achieve their potential and ensure they support others.
Solidarity – we share interests and common purposes with our members and other co-operatives. Through our House System, extra-curricular activities and Cooperative Learning approach, we encourage social belonging, connectedness and feelings of empowerment. In our common endeavours we believe we achieve more together than we will alone.

Honesty – we are honest about what we do and the way we do it
Social responsibility – we encourage people to take responsibility for their own community, and work together to improve it. We face challenges together.
