Our Ethos
At St Thomas More College, Middle and Secondary School, Żejtun, our ethos is deeply rooted in our mission statement and school vision. We strive to create an environment where all members of our school community are encouraged to embrace excellence, growth, and compassion. The following guiding principles best describe our ethos:
1. Continuous Improvement: We believe in the constant pursuit of improvement. Our aim is to make our good better and our better best. We encourage students, teachers, and staff to set high standards for themselves and continuously strive for personal and academic growth.
2. Holistic Development: We are committed to nurturing the holistic development of every student. Our focus goes beyond academics, aiming to develop well-rounded individuals who possess not only knowledge but also strong character, emotional intelligence, and social skills.
3. Lifelong Learning: We foster a love for lifelong learning in our students. We aim to instill a curiosity and passion for acquiring knowledge that extends beyond the classroom. By nurturing a thirst for knowledge, we prepare our students to adapt, innovate, and contribute meaningfully in an ever-evolving society.
4. Caring Environment: We provide a caring and inclusive environment where every student feels valued, respected, and supported. Our school community promotes empathy, compassion, and understanding, ensuring that everyone’s well-being is a top priority.
5. Sound Human Values: We believe in the importance of building sound human values. Our students are encouraged to develop integrity, honesty, responsibility, and respect for oneself and others. We emphasise the cultivation of empathy, kindness, and moral values, as these qualities are fundamental to personal growth and building positive relationships.
6. Collaboration and Partnership: We recognise the significance of collaboration and partnership in achieving our shared goals. We actively engage with our social partners, including parents, local community organisations, and religious institutions, to create a strong support network for our students. By working together, we enhance the overall educational experience and ensure the best outcomes for our students.
7. Christian Environment: Our ethos is deeply rooted in our Christian values. We embrace the teachings of love, compassion, and forgiveness, fostering an environment where faith is respected and students are encouraged to develop their spirituality.
We aim to inspire students to embrace these values and apply them in their daily lives. By embodying these principles, we create a nurturing and inspiring atmosphere that empowers our students to reach their full potential and become responsible, compassionate, and lifelong learners.
