Identity and Values
Stafford International School’s Identity : what do we want our pupils to aspire to and become?
Inspired
We want Staffordians to have been genuinely excited by everything they have done during their time at school. They will have developed a zest for life so that they, in turn, go into the world ready and able to inspire others.
Intellectual
Staffordians must move into the world with the ability to think critically and to engage in deep learning. They will be able to study beyond the bounds of any curriculum, to be inquisitive and ask questions of everything around them, and be imbued with a life-long love of learning.
Independent
Staffordians will develop the personal, cognitive, social and study skills to enable them to cope with the challenges of university and their lives beyond it. They will adapt, cope and thrive within an ever-changing world.
Individual
The aim of a Stafford education is to allow pupils to develop themselves fully in every sense, as we know that interested children become interesting adults. The pastoral care and focus on pupil wellbeing at Stafford values each and every pupil as a unique individual, helping them discover and develop their talents, passions and interests.
Inclusive
Staffordians will leave the College with the moral values and social conscience to serve others and do good in life. This inclusivity includes a strong pride in coeducation, and a commitment to understanding and appreciating our place as global citizens.
