VISION AND MISSION STATEMENT
MISSION STATEMENT

To provide our pupils with an academic education and co-curricular and extra-curricular programmes which will equip them to take their rightful place in a changing society and to meet the challenges of the 21st century.

SCHOOL PHILOSOPHY
At New West Secondary:

  • we strive to provide a school environment that motivates and supports excellence in learning with pupils, teachers, support staff, parents and community members all working together;

  • we believe that education should encourage pupils to develop to their full potential according to their own individual needs;

  • we believe that pupils are of utmost importance; therefore we shall deal professionally with all those we teach, and respect each pupil as an individual;

  • we strive to instil in every pupil a love of learning and a quest for knowledge which will continue through life;

  • we believe that pupils need to develop knowledge, skills and the ability to think for themselves so that they will be self-confident in setting goals, making informed choices and acting in ways that will improve their own lives and the life of the community;

  • we believe that it is important for our pupils to have respect for themselves, others and our environment;

  • we believe that pupils need to develop their skill in sporting and cultural activities.


Therefore, we believe that:

  • we lead by example. If we work in harmony with others involved in the education of our pupils and show that we take pride in our work, then pupils will learn from our attitudes.
