INTEGRITY IS ABOUT DOING THE RIGHT THING We treat others with respect and honesty. take care of our environment and utilise knowledge and understanding wisely. We nurture our students so that they become young adults of principle and character who support each other in their quest for excellence. WE ARE COMMITTED
TO BEING THE BEST
WE CAN BE We consistently deliver on expectations and go the extra mile to get the job done, approaching everything with a “can do attitude”. We constantly look to improve ourselves and our service, cultivating our knowledge, skill, and attitudes to achieve excellence WE ARE AMBITIOUS FOR OURSELVES AND OUR STUDENTS We set high expectations and standards and strive to achieve excellence in all that we do. We are unashamedly ambitious for the students we serve. We want to provide access to opportunities within the classroom and beyond. We will continue to strive to be the best we can be. KNOWLEDGE AND LITERACY MAKE CREATIVITY POSSIBLE Our schools, where students develop the literacy skills on which all further learning depends, cultivate creativity byproviding a broad base of academic knowledge that students need to be properly creative. The knowledge we deliver is powerful in that it changes students’ perceptions, values and understanding. It encourages students to ask new questions and explore alternate explanations

What a great training session today! 🏐 A massive shout-out to Tilly (Y7), who came to training with no previous experience and, by the end of the session, was taking part in a 7v7 game with some of our older students! Her confidence and progress were amazing to see. The Year 7 tournament is just a couple of weeks away, and we can’t wait to welcome even more players to training next week. Keep up the great work, everyone! #ambition #represent

At Lacon we set Revision and Practice for our students. We know that work set on things we have studied in lessons allows us to embed that knowledge. Practice is important to improve our technique and knowledge levels. #integrity #commitment

We are looking forward to welcoming @manny.s.kang from @national.rail to speak with our Year 7 and Year 10 students about the importance of railway safety. As part of our commitment to PSHE and Character Academy, Manny will share valuable messages about staying safe, making responsible choices, and understanding the real-life importance of railway awareness. Alongside this essential safety education, we always appreciate Manny’s inspiring message about the value of hard work, resilience, and commitment in all areas of life. These are qualities that help our students grow into confident, responsible, and successful young people. We look forward to an engaging and thought-provoking session for our students.
