OUR  VALUES

Curiosity

We educate our young people to be informed, inquisitive individuals with the ability and knowledge to use the art of questioning to explore the development of new independent ideas. This, in turn, instils in them confidence and a lifelong love of learning.

Empathy

The consideration of alternative perspectives is something we foster in our pupils. It enables them to go out in the world with a desire to make positive change, through kindness, respect and understanding.

Love

Relationships are enhanced when the value of love, for oneself and others, is achieved. This is something we encourage in all pupils, alongside a love of the planet we live on, the natural world around us and a passion for preserving it.

Direction

We constantly support pupils to strive for ambition through a commitment and dedication to achieve personal goals that provides individual and personal direction, gives purpose and drives motivation.

COMMUNITY

All aspects of Clifton High School life is collaborative.  As a medium sized, all-through independent School, the sense of unity is prevalent and an element that our pupils, parents, staff and Rosarians alike all attest to being our greatest strength. It is this community atmosphere that affirms the tangible warm and friendly ‘feel’ of Clifton High School,  supporting and enabling all members to achieve 'individual brilliance'.
