Academy values:

Inspired by the life of Christ and the work of St John Bosco, we endeavour, through active partnership with home, parish and the wider community, to prepare our students to face the future with confidence.

We aim to instil the Salesian values of Respect, Understanding, Affection and Humour – RUAH. These four values underpin every aspect of our school life and together spell out the Hebrew word for 'breath of life' or 'spirit'. These values must be evident in our orderly and settled environment where we insist on the highest standards of politeness, behaviour, and appearance.

Respect – for oneself, and others, and every opportunity
Understanding – a commitment to learning and working well with others
Affection – care and love for each other, always
Happiness and Humour – Don Bosco loved to make people laugh
