Values


At Egerton High School, as a staff, we believe the following to be our highest values:  

Consistency: in our behaviours, our dealings with others

Rationalisation: the desire and ability to understand and moderate our behaviour  

Love and compassion: the ability to display common decency and understanding towards each other

Respect: feelings of high self-worth and due regard to the importance of others

Humility: to avoid arrogance in our views, words and actions; express gratitude for positives  

Honesty, fairness and a sense of justice: the ability to see and do the morally right things; to treat all with parity and equality  

Team work: our ability to co-operate with, value the role of, and give space to others  

Trust: to inspire confidence in ourselves and express confidence in others  

Communication: our ability to speak properly and non-verbally communicate well: objectively, politely, clearly and confidently  

Resilience, self-control, understanding: our ability to see and aim towards long term goals, beyond our immediate emotional reaction to something; our ability to not give up easily until we reach our goal  

Justice: fairness in our judgements and thoughts  

Responsibility: for our actions, and our accountable areas
