The mandate of the Preamble of the 1945 Constitution in the fourth paragraph indicates the goal of education that is to educate the nation's life. The mandate is operationally implemented in the strategic plan of formal education through the “2013 Curriculum” design which emphasizes "improvement of noble character".

In accordance with the spirit of the SSpS Sisters (Servorum Spiritu Sancto) – the owner of the school – Catholic values are the focus educational process. The Catholic values such as cooperation, honesty, responsibility, faith/trust, sacrifice, humility, and love must span the student’s behaviours. The results of the pre-test done showed that three values: cooperation, honesty, and responsibility, are considerable unsatisfactory among the students.
