Our values are the things that matter most to us at Lozells. They help us be the best versions of ourselves — in school and for the rest of our lives!
Every single day, in every lesson and every moment, our values are there. They help us treat each other well, keep going when things get hard, and be proud of who we are.

At Lozells, we are proud of who we are — and our values remind us every day of who we are still becoming.
Our Six Values
Let's find out what each one means — in our own words!
💚
Kindness
We show care and compassion to everyone around us
What does this mean?
Being kind means we look out for each other. We notice when someone needs help, and we do something about it. Kindness isn't just about being nice — it takes real courage to step in and make someone's day better!
⭐ In my own words...
When I see someone feeling sad or left out, I go and help them. I include everyone, I share, and I make our school a warm and happy place for everyone — not just my friends.
Happiness means taking care of how we feel — and helping others feel good too. When we feel happy and safe, we can learn better, be kinder, and enjoy every day at school. Your happiness matters — and so does everyone else's!
⭐ In my own words...
I look after myself and the people around me. I enjoy my learning, I celebrate what I've achieved, and I help make Lozells a place where everyone smiles. My happiness matters — and so does yours!
Everyone makes mistakes — that's part of being human! Forgiveness means we can let go of hurt feelings and give people a second chance. It doesn't mean pretending something didn't happen — it means being brave enough to move forward together.
⭐ In my own words...
When someone hurts my feelings, I can choose to forgive them and move on. It takes real bravery — and it makes me and everyone around me feel better. Everyone deserves a second chance.

Determination
We keep going, even when things get tough!
What does this mean?
Determination means not giving up when something feels hard. Every time you make a mistake, you are actually learning! We set big goals for ourselves and work hard to reach them — because we believe every single one of us can achieve amazing things.
⭐ In my own words...
I don't give up when something is difficult. I set myself big goals and work hard to reach them. Mistakes mean I'm learning — and if I keep trying, I can achieve anything!
Lozells is full of different people, backgrounds and ideas — and that is something to celebrate! Respect means we treat everyone the way we would like to be treated. We listen carefully, we welcome differences, and we speak up when something feels unfair.
⭐ In my own words...
I treat everyone the way I want to be treated. I celebrate what makes us all different, I listen to other people's ideas, and I stand up against things that are unfair — in a kind and confident way.
Honesty means telling the truth — even when it's hard. It also means owning up when we make mistakes. When we are honest, people can trust us. And at Lozells, being honest always means you'll get support, not told off. Being honest takes real bravery!
⭐ In my own words...
I tell the truth, even when it's hard. When I make a mistake, I own up to it — because being honest shows real bravery and helps everyone trust each other.
