Vision and Values
Starting with the end in mind...
There’s something in the water at BMJ. Something different. Our children love coming to school. They know that they will be inspired every day. They know that they will be challenged – and they have been taught to relish challenges. Finding things tough is something to be enjoyed. Problems are there to be solved. We deal in ‘Head-Hurt Learning” – that ice cream brain freeze moment, when you’re vulnerable and on the edge of learning something new - when you’re about to understand some new concept. When you’re uncomfortable. That eureka moment when something finally clicks – “oh, I get it now” echoes around our corridors and classrooms.
We are shapers of the future.
Challenge, expectation, resilience. We are the solvers of problems. We are the courageous leaders, the collaborators. We learn with and from each other every day. We take responsibility for our learning, so we thrive on new challenges and experiences. We are the innovators. We are the next builders, designers, educators and thinkers.
Children get the BMJ X offer - they contribute beyond the academic and beyond the school walls. Children think big, bigger and biggest.
Our jobs don’t exist yet. Yet, we are prepared for the future because we think ‘outside of the box’. We are curious. We are resilient and we have the confidence to defend and justify our beliefs. We have the empathy to understand – to listen and to hear and value others. Diversity is celebrated. Compassion is our currency. We are the next generation. We are the future. We care about our future world. We will fiercely protect OUR planet and we believe in the fundamental goodness of its people.
We build better humans here.
