“A School does not exist to send out men and women solely to play a part in life whereby they achieve a competence and honourable life of useful work, but it exists to send out for posterity and for their own generation, men and women who by their character shall leave the society in which they live, the better for their presence and hence the world much nearer the Kingdom.”

Dr. Watts, 1936

Nearly one hundred years later, all we do as a School continues to reflect Dr Watts’ philosophy of education. At St George’s we firmly believe that everything we deliver and undertake has some learning potential.  We believe that knowledge and skills can be gained through a variety of learning opportunities, both in the classroom and beyond, and that our whole school experience allows for a continuum of learning that enables us as a community to meet our vision to “Aim Higher”.

We seek to provide an equitable experience to all students and to deliver a curriculum:

• Characterised by breadth, balance, coherence,
• Relevant, both to students and the world they live in,
• That satisfies pupil choice, provides challenges, and meets the needs of all those in our care.
