Creating Opportunities: Realising Potential: Achieving Excellence
To create opportunities, realise potential and achieve excellence, all members of the school community must adopt a shared set of values. GMS’s core values are:
- excellence
- compassion
- integrity
In addition, we have introduced a whole school programme under the banner, ‘My Personal Best’, which focuses on explicitly developing and recognising the following skills:
- reflection
- resourcefulness
- readiness
- resilience
- responsibility
- respect
Through our vision and values, we strive to achieve the following:
- Provide a broad and balanced curriculum fit for today’s world and the future, which challenges aspirations and makes achievement for all a reality.
- Enable students to enjoy school, leading to them becoming lifelong learners.
- Develop successful global citizens by promoting a strong sense of self-belief; collective identity; an appreciation of diversity; and the value of giving through charitable endeavours.
- Develop a staff who are dynamic, highly skilled and passionate and who have a shared vision to deliver successful and outstanding teaching and learning.
- Deliver a high quality safe school environment that inspires students, staff and the community to excel.
- Ensure the school is financially secure through highly effective management of existing resources, while further developing our relationship with our community and commerce locally, nationally and internationally.
- Drive the school forward with a clarity of vision and strategy implemented by a skilled, dedicated leadership team and governors.
