Values and vision
As a Christian community, St Hild’s’ educational offering is based on the values of care, equality, honesty and responsibility.
Students are encouraged to have increasingly high expectations of themselves and are nurtured to develop growth mindsets so that they believe that their intelligence can grow and that effort leads to success. The school offers full support so that they can achieve their academic potential, as well as develop both personally and socially.
Traditional teaching methods are complemented by innovative and creative methods of curriculum delivery. The school takes in loco parentis seriously and makes every effort to make the decisions that parents and carers would make for their own children if they could.
