Student Profile Overview
Aims of the Ursuline Student Profile (USP)
“To produce a profile that describes the whole process of Ursuline education,
rather than that of a school leaver.”
An image in the shape of a tree has been designed for the Ursuline Student Profile.

The USP proposes, alongside the two guiding principles of United in Harmony and Serviam, eight pairs of virtues, that sum up what a pupil in an Ursuline school is growing to be.
The image is accompanied by formal statements.

Both the image and the statements are designed to provide a rich resource to stimulate discussion in class, assemblies, retreats and liturgy, in meetings of governors, with school leaders, teachers, support staff and parents; and which can be used to explain to prospective parents the aims of Ursuline education.
Alongside the student profile, we have developed parallel statements which explain what an Ursuline school needs to do to help its students grow in the virtues of the Ursuline Student Profile.
