Brisbane Independent School'sSchool'sSchool's Mission is to nurture, develop and trust our pupils'pupils'pupils' innate love of learning and positive values, and produce respectful, respectful graduates confident, competent, and self-motivated, with the skills necessary for lifelong learning in all facets of their lives.
The Mission of our school was developed collaboratively with our school community and incorporated the original goals of the school when it first began. The Mission reflects two essential ingredients to BIS: Child-Focused – The child'schild'schild's education sits at the center of the decision-making, not the institution and not the adults' needs. Long Term View – We see your child'schild'schild's primary education as the first learning step in a long life of learning. Consequently, our Mission is ultimately about creating experiences that will help them learn to be future great citizens and happy, empowered human beings.
Brisbane Independent School'sSchool'sSchool's Mission is to nurture, develop and trust our pupils'pupils'pupils' innate love of learning and positive values, and produce respectful, respectful graduates confident, competent, and self-motivated, with the skills necessary for lifelong learning in all facets of their lives.
To this end, we provide a supportive, flexible, and democratic educational environment for the child's development, including social, emotional, ethical, physical, and cognitive development, within a school community that supports our values.
The BIS Values sit as the principles that will deliver our Mission. Our Board may change, and the curriculum is adapted, but these core values will always sit at the school's heart. The Values consequently form the core of the decision-making for all aspects of BIS: students, staff, and management. Therefore, the values are core content for our Expedition curriculum, underpinning the way we see the Australian Curriculum content and the basis for our Study of Self curriculum. Primary-aged children struggle with the big concepts wrapped up in Values words, so we make sure that they live the values' experience in their daily world. The Values also sit as core to how we decide on the budget, future planning, and team direction.
We accept that we are all part of a lifelong process of values learning–it is not innate. This process has three stages, starting from the self and expanding to include the wider world. Our innovative Expedition curriculum supports this process by exploring themes and developing our students' student's understanding of themselves and their place within the world.
