The English School has a long and distinguished history of providing an education characterised by an ethos of excellence and preparing young people well with the skills and attributes for meaningful, fulfilling lives. We believe that all children have the right to the best possible education through this commitment to excellence. It is at the very heart of everything we do. We provide an inspiring, challenging and innovative curriculum that is typified by criticism, creativity, challenge, compassion and contemplation.

Criticism is the education of the intellect, and we develop understanding and problem-solving skills, sound judgement and constructive criticism within each young person. Creativity is the education of the imagination and seeks to provide opportunities for making connections and seeing the world in different ways. The challenge is the education of the will, developing mental and physical courage, and overcoming one’s fears and limitations. Compassion is the education of emotions, an ability to identify with other people and a willingness to take action to help them when needed. Contemplation is the education of the spirit, where we develop the capacity for wonder and the sense that one is part of something larger than oneself.

We are also proud to say that the students of The English School make a difference in the local, national and international arenas; they are lifetime ambassadors of our unique legacy. We hope that you, too, will consider having your child join us on this exciting journey and add their own personal story to this legacy.
