Our values
At Virtus, we embrace a set of core values that we refer to as DRIVE: Discipline, Resilience, Integrity, Vision, and Enthusiasm. These values shape our educational philosophy, guide our interactions and help foster a positive and empowering learning environment; inspiring our students to become responsible, resilient, and visionary individuals who approach life with integrity and enthusiasm.
Discipline
We believe in the importance of discipline as a fundamental element of personal growth and success. We encourage our students to cultivate self-discipline in their studies, time management, and behaviour, instilling habits that promote responsibility and accountability.
Resilience
We recognise that challenges and setbacks are a natural part of the learning journey. We empower our students to develop resilience, teaching them how to bounce back from adversity, persevere through difficulties, and embrace failure as an opportunity for growth. By cultivating resilience, our students are equipped with the strength and determination to overcome obstacles and reach their full potential.
Integrity
We uphold the highest standards of integrity, promoting honesty, fairness, and ethical behaviour among our students. We emphasise the importance of acting with integrity in their academic pursuits, interactions with peers and teachers, and in their broader lives. Integrity forms the foundation for building trust, fostering a culture of respect and honour within our school community.
Vision
We inspire our students to think beyond the present and embrace a visionary mindset. We encourage them to dream big, set ambitious goals, and think creatively and innovatively. By nurturing a visionary mindset, we empower our students to become forward-thinkers, problem solvers, and leaders who can make a positive impact on the world.
Enthusiasm
We believe that enthusiasm is a catalyst for engagement and meaningful learning. We strive to create a vibrant and joyful atmosphere where students are excited about their education, curious to explore new ideas, and eager to participate in various activities. We encourage a genuine passion for learning and celebrate the enthusiasm that drives our students to excel.
