Mission Statement

Redmaids’ High is an inclusive community, based on happiness, aspiration, and support for others.

Our statement is supported by our Values, which outline the core aspects that will help us fulfil our mission. These are:

To know and understand each individual student.

To help students to understand themselves and their strengths.

To inspire students to forge a future of lifelong learning, in all its guises

Our mission and values are simple, and deliberately so. We are proud of the achievements and destinations for all of our students, and this is the result of the hard work by all members of the community to ensure that students feel known and valued for who they are, as well as inspired about what they can be. We want all students to leave with thestrong sensethat they can go on and make a difference in their world, whatever they go on to do. A student’s definition of success is their own, but what we instill in them is a feeling that their sights should never be lowered by external forces.
