Ethos

At Old Palace, we are committed to:

• providing a safe, stimulating and caring environment where each individual gains a strong sense of self worth through recognition of their contribution to the community;

• creating a culture of praise and encouragement, celebrating and promoting diversity and individuality;

• the highest standards of learning and teaching which recognise the learning needs of the individual and extend potential and develop independent learners;

• providing a creative and challenging curriculum that inspires and equips girls to become life-long learners in a local, national and global community;

• developing positive relationships throughout the community, based on mutual respect and understanding, upholding the Christian ideals of our Founders;

• clear and consistent expectations of behaviour needed to foster learning for all, self-discipline and a sense of personal responsibility;

• working in partnership with all members of the community to raise aspirations and achievement and to develop a love of learning.
