Our Vision and Values

Our vision is to offer a life-changing education of all-round excellence with a strong academic thread; to be the school of choice in East Yorkshire and the Humber area, and a flagship for the independent sector in the north of England.

We aim to encourage our pupils to make the most of the opportunities afforded to them by a Hymers education, educating them to:

• be intellectually curious

• act with integrity

• show a sense of responsibility to their local communities and the world beyond

To achieve these aims we promote four key priorities: 

Community: to be an inclusive and diverse community that is strong, cohesive and mutually supportive 

Aspiration: to live up to our motto of High Merit. High Reward. 

Integrity: to act with responsibility, honesty, kindness and empathy 

Service: to promote service within our own school community; to the wider community within the city and region; to an interconnected world
