Guiding Principles
Each student is a unique gift from God with the right to an education in a caring and
sharing Catholic learning environment.
Each student is a valued and respected member
of his or her school community.
Inclusive education responds to the diverse learning styles of each student where every
kind of learning is valued.
An inclusive Catholic school culture nurtures a respectful and collaborative community
that plans and problem solves together with students, parents, teachers, staff and those
within the extended community.
Each student is capable of learning and achieving to the best of her/his ability and
contributing to and benefiting from meaningful participation in the life of their school.
Educating our children is not only a basic human right, it is also the vehicle for social
inclusion and social change.
