Values Passport
The Values Passport was developed following suggestions from our 2022-2023 Head Girl Team, Annabel Mair, Chloe de Gouveia and Michaela Taylor, with input from representatives of the Student Council.
Its purpose is:
To encourage and celebrate members of our community in living our values: Aspire, Inquire, Excel, Belong
To help students enrich their cultural, academic and social experience in and beyond College
How does it work?
Students can log completion of activities linked to the values (no evidence is required, we trust and celebrate!)
Tutors will be able to review the Passport with students in mentoring sessions and in other conversations
Tutors will be able to identify any barriers to students accessing these opportunities
Students can go back and complete a Lower School activity in the Upper School (but they won't be able to tick off a Sixth Form activity in the Lower School)
Here is a sample of the Values challenges:
