Our shared vision, values and aims
Our vision, values and aims were refreshed following a whole school consultation from April 2022 until December 2022.
With the challenges that everyone in our school community and across the nation faced during the COVID-19 pandemic, we knew that our vision, values and aims needed to be refreshed to align with the direction we were now going in as a school.
Many young people struggled to come back to school and re-introducing good routines were something that was parents voiced as being really important. Learning to not shy away from difficulties and trying to overcome them is a really important value and this is why Resilience was chosen as one of our three school values.
Milne's High School prides itself on being a school where positive relationships are at the heart of who we are as a school. Staff tell us their favourite thing about working at MHS are the young people and the pupils tell us one of their favourite things about MHS are the staff that work there. We know that being kind to each other, ensuring we take pride in our school building and looking after our local community helps to create our welcoming ethos and this is why Respect was chosen as one of our three school values.
And lastly we all need to play our part and ensure we take ownership for our actions and being prepared and ready to learn. In particular our pupils felt Responsibility was an important value to have as it prepares you for the world of work and further education after High School.
Our values, also known as the 3 Rs, have been embedded in ‘The Milne's Way’ and our merit system aligns with our values, allowing us to celebrate when our pupils demonstrate and live our MHS values!
