Cheltenham Values

Every pupil will be challenged, supported, and inspired to achieve their very best. Through Curiosity, Creativity, Character, Community, and Continuous Excellence, we prepare our pupils not just for success at school, but for a lifetime of achievement, leadership, and personal fulfilment.

Curiosity

We inspire a love of learning, encouraging pupils to question, explore, and think independently. Academic rigour is at the heart of a Cheltenham education, where curiosity drives discovery, debate, and critical thinking.

Creativity

Beyond knowledge, we nurture creative minds, helping pupils develop their talents and think innovatively. Through the arts, design, and problem-solving, they explore new ideas, express themselves, and push boundaries.

Character

Success requires resilience, integrity, and sound judgement. We instil a strong moral compass, fostering compassion and confidence so pupils are prepared to navigate life’s challenges and make a meaningful impact.

Community

A Cheltenham education instils a deep sense of belonging and responsibility. Pupils engage in service, teamwork, and global initiatives, developing empathy and a commitment to the common good.

Continuous Excellence

We believe that hard work conquers all. Our pupils embrace challenges, learn from setbacks, and strive for excellence in all they do—academically, creatively, and personally.
