PRIDE

We are proud of our students, our values and our drive to succeed. This is demonstrated through AGS Pride – an Acklam Grange Way for students rooted in the following five key principles;

  • Don’t be afraid of failure
  • Challenge yourself
  • Grit (and attendance)
  • Use feedback to improve performance

Respect

Show tolerance to all through care, courtesy and consideration.

 

  • Appropriate language and good manners
  • Respect yourself and others
  • Consider your social footprint
  • Planning, preparation and punctuality

Initiative

  • Make your ideas happen
  • Be an independent learner

  • Forward thinking

Direction

We expect all of our students to follow our AGS Respect Agenda where we ask students to consider the 2nd of our five core values.

Our school rules have been rebranded simply as our 3 R’s.
