Confident
Pupils at Kents Hill Park are confident in themselves, their abilities and their journey of intellectual discovery and ambition.
They are determined to step outside of their comfort zones, admit and learn from their mistakes, and stand independently if they need to.
Pupils understand the value of teamwork and competitive spirit, and appreciate that supporting others is as valuable as taking centre stage.
Pupils are prepared for life in modern Britain. They learn about multi-cultural and multi-faith societies through a range of assemblies, trips and visits - all contributing to a successful delivery of the Personal, Social, Health, Economic, Citizenship and Relationships programme.
