Developing the talents of each pupil

  • Pupils are encouraged to strive for excellence in all endeavours, be they academic or non academic.

  • The curriculum of the school aims to develop the individual talents of each pupil to the full.

  • Pupils are encouraged to appreciate the value of self-discipline in their work, appearance and behaviour.

  • The relatively small, friendly and caring environment ensures each pupil is individually known by most members of staff.

  • The wide-ranging sporting, social and cultural activities help pupils to develop their talents and abilities.

  • Growing up in a multi-cultural environment helps pupils develop consideration and tolerance for the views of others.  

Encouraging Responsibility

  • Whole school and departmental assemblies invite reflection on serious issues when a class performs a' Thought for the Day’ once a week.

  • The President’s Award scheme, which is equivalent to the Duke of Edinburgh’s scheme in the UK, contributes to character development.

  • There are many opportunities to acquire leadership skills as House Captains and Prefects and through the Community Sports Leaders Award.

  • 'Pupil of the Week’ Certificates are awarded weekly to recognize character and moral development.

  • Raising money for children’s charities through sponsored activities helps raise awareness of the less well off, and a thriving Rotaract Club, the youth division Rotary Club International, encourages young people to focus their attention on the needs of the less fortunate members of their community.

  • The opinions of the pupils are aired in regular student Council meetings, to which all classes from Year 5 send a representative.
