Citizenship – having ethical and informed views, participating in community and society, having a knowledge of local, national and global issues;

 

Communication – being effective in reading, writing, talking and listening for different audiences and purposes, using a range of media;

 

Collaboration – working with others in teams, valuing and learning from the contribution of others, taking roles and responsibilities and leading activity;

 

Critical thinking - being able to understand and summarise key ideas, to analyse and interpret, to evaluate, draw conclusions and solve problems; and

 

Creativity – being imaginative and open to new ideas and different ways of doing things, to be innovative and original and take an enterprising approach.
