School Aims : C.A.R.E.S.

Bannockburn High School is working with all pupils and parents to raise:


CONFIDENCE

The school actively encourages all pupils to believe in their own abilities and personal qualities. This is promoted by creating an environment where pupils enjoy working and studying, can see the benefits of hard work and conscientious study, an environment where sincere effort is recognised, where success is praised and motivation is increased.

 


ACHIEVEMENT

The central aim of the school is to work to obtain the highest levels of achievement for all pupils. This includes attainment in classwork and tests, in school and national examinations, in work experience placements, sporting events and personal interest activities. Targets are clearly specified and agreed, so that pupils have clear goals towards which to strive.

 

RESPECT

Through the existence of a highly positive, challenging and supportive ethos, pupils are encouraged to cultivate, similarly positive attitudes towards themselves, their work, their fellow pupils, their teachers and their school. Treating others with
respect and expecting the same in return, lies at the very heart of this approach to life in our school and the wider community.

 


EXPECTATIONS

All staff set themselves and their pupils high expectations in areas such as quality of work, punctuality, attendance, effort, commitment, behaviour, manners and dress. Pupils are encouraged to develop their own high expectations in all these
areas. An ethos of achievement is expected and actively encouraged throughout the school.

 


STANDARDS

The school strives to ensure that pupils are encouraged and motivated to achieve the highest possible standards in classwork, homework, in tests and examinations and other personal qualities such as punctuality, attendance, effort, commitment, behaviour, manners and dress. School rules are clear, readily understood and appropriate as are targets for learning. Strategies are in place to
monitor performance to improve attainment and to support and encourage.
