The culture of the school, the conduct expected and the community it creates is the responsibility of everyone: the teachers, support staff and the students. Everyone is on the same team. Everyone has an obligation to create and nurture a positive environment in which we are all ready to learn, respectful of oneself and of others and take responsibility for our actions. We have high expectations that all pupils will:

​
