Our Values at MACS

Our values are shared by both pupils and staff and underpin all aspects of school life:
 
  • Motivated – We take responsibility for our learning, our behaviour and our personal development. We encourage effort, resilience and a positive attitude.
  • Ambitious – We believe in striving for the best possible outcomes and opening pathways for the future. We set high expectations for ourselves and support others to achieve their potential.
  • Caring – We look after one another and our community. Kindness, empathy and inclusion are central to how we work and learn together.
  • Self-Aware – We reflect on our actions, recognise our strengths and areas for growth, and understand the impact we have on others.

 

Alongside these values, we expect everyone in our school community to be Ready, Respectful and Safe, ensuring that MACS is a positive and purposeful environment for learning.
 
 

Values in Action

Our values are not just words – they are lived every day. They shape:
 
  • Our approach to teaching, learning and leadership
  • How we promote pupil voice, wellbeing and inclusion
  • Our behaviour expectations and restorative approaches
  • How we prepare learners for life beyond school
In line with the Curriculum for Wales, our values support learners to develop as ethical, informed citizensconfident individuals and ambitious, capable learners who understand their role within the school and wider community.
 
By sharing a clear and consistent set of values, we ensure that everyone at MACS – pupils, staff and families – is working towards the same goals, with a strong sense of belonging, pride and purpose.
 
Our values define who we are.
