Our Values, Beliefs and Behaviours
We value and respect all people for their knowledge, experience and capabilities.
We value our heritage and we believe families and our local community can play an inspiring and purposeful role in young people’s learning.
We believe that all young people from every kind of background should be equally recognised as being creative and individual.
We believe that learning should engage all members of the community in order to support them in fulfilling their personal and academic potential.
We expect everyone to demonstrate through their actions and behaviours, respect for themselves and the community – people, property and the environment - and take pride in what they are capable of achieving.
We expect parents to be involved with the school, taking an active interest in the development of their own and others' children, and for staff to seek opportunities for parents to come into school.

7. Role of the tutor
The role of the tutor within the education of our students is at the very heart of our EPCS vision.
The raising standards team has developed a system to help students and parents deliver clear expectations to ensure success for your child.
Parents and tutors working together will create the tone which will help your child achieve their potential.
