Our Values

At Lacon Childe School, we live and breathe our values – they are embedded into everything we do and are a part of who we are as members of the community at Lacon Childe School. The Lacon Childe School community is made up of students, staff, parents/carers and the Governors. We all aim to embody the values of our school as we believe this will make us all successful but most importantly will ensure that our community is a safe and happy place where positive relationships allow you to thrive.

Throughout the year we teach students how to show the school values in all aspects of life, which we believe will help them to become well-rounded individuals who are kind and who have high expectations of themselves. We believe that every student is capable of achieving the very best and that they can be kind to everybody in the community. 

We are dedicated to improving standards and driven to achieve excellence by living and breathing our core values of:

AMBITION

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

COMMITMENT

We are committed to being the best we can be. We consistently deliver on expectations, go the extra mile to get the job done and give 100% in all that we do, 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

CREATIVITY

We always seek innovative solutions for our students so that they achieve everything they are capable of. We believe that creativity is only truly possible when it is based on a bedrock of knowledge. We cultivate creativity by providing 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 alternative explanations.

INTEGRITY

We always do 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.
