Catholic Social Teaching

Our CAST School's Gospel Values

All of the schools in Plymouth CAST share the same Gospel values as it unites us as an academy and creates a similar vision for our schools. Each term, we explore the meaning of these values through group discussions, images and poetry. They stem from Matthew's Gospel when he explains Jesus teaching to the apostles about the greatest values and blessings, commonly called The Beatitudes. They are:
Kindness, Forgiveness, Humility, Peace, Courage, Integrity, Compassion, Justice
