Our Values

At the centre of all that we do at Mossbourne Sixth Form Thurrock are our core values of excellence, unity and no excuses:

Excellence: By always doing everything as well as we can, we maximise students’ learning potential. We offer a broad, balanced curriculum, well matched to learners’ needs and aspirations - one which will ensure excellent outcomes for all. In our calm, studious learning environment, students develop the independent study skills necessary to become lifelong, well-rounded learners, equipped for the future. Based on respect for each other, we recognise and value the crucial role played by strong partnerships between students, parents, our governing body and our wider community.

Unity: Shared goals create a climate of aspiration where self-critical schools, working in partnership with each other and within each community, constantly drive up standards. Honesty, integrity, and self-reflection form the basis of the shared principles and aspirations of students, parents, staff and governors.

No excuses: Believing that anything is possible develops an ethos of aspiration, perseverance and resilience among both students and staff. Our ‘structured support' approach means we aim never to give up on a child - we just need to work harder and go that ‘extra mile’. We celebrate success, and recognise that attention to detail, and by consistently looking at how things can be refined ensures that we constantly strive for improvement.
