EDUCATION

As part of our educational and formative approach, and in alignment with its philosophy of openness and appreciation of diversity, Craighouse School also offers religious education with Catholic, Jewish, and Protestant religion classes, placing a strong emphasis on education for peace.

Craighouse has defined nine values as the foundation of its educational approach.

• Respect
• Responsability
• Honesty
• Effort

• Solidarity
• Friendship
• Tolerance
• Loyalty
• Justice

The Formative Area contributes to the development of values in various ways: through monitoring the implementation of the Formative Curriculum, coordinating the Formative Council, and integrating this topic into Educational Councils.

It also engages with parents through workshops, meetings, and gatherings that foster collaborative work on this subject, in alignment with the different stages of students' school life.
