Our Values & Ethos

Our Values

To Aim high and Give back and we do this with Curiosity, Creativity and Kindness.

Our values underpin everything we do. They were created through consultation and are part of our Vision and Mission. These are important to everyone in our community and are embedded throughout school life. Here is one example. This shows how we embed our values within our sporting programme.

“We believe that how our students engage in sport is as important as why. Our sporting values are prominently displayed around the campus and play a critical role in shaping the experiences of our students and promoting positive behaviours on and off the pitches.”

Mark Appleson Director of Sport

 

Our Ethos

At Fettes we are proud of our full boarding ethos.

Our full boarding ethos enables every student (boarding and day) to maximise their full potential to stretch and grow in confidence, and develop their talents, through the vast number of opportunities available to them in our academic, co-curricular, evening and weekend programmes. Every member of our teaching staff has a role in our Boarding Houses, allowing them to immerse themselves in our community and really get to know every student not only in the classroom.
