Vision and Values
At Brentwood County High School, we envision a dynamic learning community that fosters growth and prepares students for a rapidly evolving world. Our vision is rooted in our core values of
- Self-help
- Self-responsibility
- Democracy
- Equality
- Equity
- Solidarity
So, what does Belonging look like at BCHS? The circle.
The belief that children need the confluence of good character and great achievements to be successful. We know our young people will have to be able to compete with everyone their age in the nation for jobs, apprenticeships and university places.
As staff in the BCHS Circle, we are committed to developing these two things, so we say, ‘as character grows, achievement flourishes’.
Young people in the circle’s character grow everyday but we ensure this with thoughtful and well-delivered assembly curriculum, personal development sessions every morning that works in tandem with the reading curriculum, enrichment clubs, educational excursions and much more. Our whole behaviour policy is rooted in character.
Achievement flourishes at BCHS with well-planned and expertly delivered ACE lessons. Our lessons are adaptive, creative and engaging.
We are not just reacting- that’s elementary. At BCHS, we stay proactively poised and curious ready to help our students to be ready to compete!
Be Adaptive
We strive to cultivate adaptive learners who embrace change and possess the skills to navigate an ever-changing landscape. Our students will develop the resilience, flexibility, and resourcefulness needed to thrive in an increasingly complex and interconnected world.
Be Creative
We foster a culture of creativity, encouraging students to explore innovative ideas, think critically, and express themselves in diverse ways. By nurturing imagination and originality, we empower our students to solve problems, challenge conventions, and contribute meaningfully to society.
Be Engaging
We believe in providing engaging and inclusive learning experiences that captivate our students' interests and promote active participation. Our educators create stimulating environments that encourage collaboration, enquiry, and dialogue, fostering a love for lifelong learning and a sense of belonging within our school community.
By embracing these principles, we aim to inspire a generation of individuals who are adaptable, creative, and engaging. Through the cultivation of self-help, self-responsibility, democracy, equality, equity, and solidarity, Brentwood County High School equips students with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to become successful, compassionate, and socially responsible global citizens.
