Compassion&nbsp;– We bring empathy and kindness to all we do, to better understand and meet the needs of children and young people, colleagues and other stakeholders.
Integrity&nbsp;– We demonstrate sound ethical values in all our work, and we are honest, transparent, courageous and authentic.
Perseverance&nbsp;– We have the courage to continue in the face of adversity and do this with determination to find effective solutions.
Creativity&nbsp;– We bring an open-minded approach and flexibility to our thinking and actions and enable others to do the same.&nbsp;
