Our Philosophy: Individual Care, Happy Students
At Blue Coat, our philosophy is that every student should be known and cared for as an individual. Good relationships are everything. Our focus in getting to know young people, enjoying their company, and finding out what makes them tick. With our low staff-to-student ratio, expert teachers, and individualised tutoring, we care for our students deeply and thoughtfully. That could be experienced in a House Family meeting, a one-to-one with a tutor, or just a good chat with a friend.
We also believe strongly that we care for our students by making school fun. We are blessed with a beautiful, open site. We provide stimulating lessons and a wide variety of enrichment opportunities. We have a vibrant House system. Blue Coat is a friendly and inclusive school, focused on the happiness of its students. Great friendships are made, along with many happy memories.
Our Values
Everything we do, including the care that we provide for our students, is rooted in our school’s values:
- Aspiration – setting the highest standards for a happy, safe, and meaningful learning environment
- Courage – helping and caring for our students, no matter how difficult the situation
- Compassion – building empathy and understanding right across our school
- Service – placing the needs of others first, teaching the value of generosity and care
- Integrity – doing the right thing clearly, consistently, and fairly, and showing students the way
Our values bring us together as one community – students, parents, staff. Caring for others is at the heart of our Blue Coat community.
