At Leigh UTC Dartford, we are committed to fostering an environment that prioritises personal development, mutual respect, and shared responsibility. Our core values are encapsulated in three professional habits that guide the behaviour and actions of our students and staff alike. These habits not only define our school culture but also serve as a framework for growth, collaboration and success.
Respect is the cornerstone of our learning community. We value every individual’s voice and contributions, ensuring that all members of our school feel heard, valued, and appreciated. Respect extends beyond the classroom, fostering an inclusive and welcoming environment where diversity is celebrated, and personal boundaries are upheld.
Building strong relationships is fundamental to our success. At Leigh UTC Dartford, we encourage genuine connections between students, staff, and the wider community. Through collaboration, mutual support, and open communication, we aim to create an environment where everyone feels supported in their learning journey and personal development.
Responsibility is at the heart of our ethos. We expect all members of our school to take ownership of their actions, both academically and personally. Students are encouraged to be proactive in their learning, to meet deadlines, and to contribute positively to the school environment. Staff lead by example, supporting students in understanding their role in the wider community and in preparing them to be responsible citizens.
Together, these professional habits help to shape a school culture that promotes respect, builds strong relationships, and nurtures a sense of responsibility in every individual. At Leigh UTC Dartford, we are proud of the values that guide us and the positive impact they have on the lives of our students.
