King Edward VI Community College Prospectus - page 6

We aspire to the very highest academic, creative and practical
expectations for every child; we are ambitious and want them
to achieve their very best whatever their skills and talents.
Inspired learning:
creates a safe and nurturing environment where students
are respected and cared for
develops trust, confidence and responsibility
provides an exciting place for students to explore, discover,
make mistakes, create and enjoy learning
results in a culture of achievement.
Students need to become successful learners who embrace
and manage change, find resilience when facing life’s
challenges, and make the most of opportunities.
We focus on students developing a range of valuable personal
learning and thinking skills. These skills are built upon as
they move up the College.
At KEVICC, staff are learners too and engage in professional
learning tailored to their needs. Every fortnight our staff are
involved in discussing, reflecting upon and developing their
practice. Centred on choice and individual reflection, our
professional learning is a space for staff to grow partnerships
and spread great ideas.
