OUR VALUES               

We want everything about our school to communicate to pupils:                                                                          

• that they are valued; we value each pupil, recognising both their potential and their challenges, and work hard to support them in the pursuit of personal achievement   
• that what they communicate is important and will be responded to
• that their way of communicating will be respected
• that they will be treated with dignity and according to their age and needs
• That their own particular achievements will be recognised and celebrated. 

And post 16, Y Gorwel values promote;

SKILLS FOR LIFE- achieving personal growth, to be a confident member of

 my community.

 PERSONAL GROWTH- to be motivated, achieve my goals and be the best I

 can be!

 COMMUNICATION SKILLS- to develop my communication skills, to be heard

 and to be seen.

 WIDENING HORIZONS- making choices that are best for me, and experiencing

 what could be possible.

 OVERCOMING BARRIERS- develop resilience and persevere to learn, grow

 and prepare for changes through adulthood

 INDEPENDENCE- accept new challenges, create lifelong friendships,

 and be proud of who I am.

Values are the principles that help you decide what is right and wrong, and how to act, they are standards of behaviour, what is correct behaviours and attitudes. At Ysgol Crug Glas we are passionate and committed to celebrating the uniqueness of every individual whilst promoting the values and principles; pupils are valued, respected and celebrated. Putting the pupil at the centre of everything we do, provides opportunities to develop skills for life, personal growth and independence, while encouraging them to overcome barriers and widening their horizons.
