A very special community

Each school retains its own character under its own Head Teacher but we share the same objectives, and co-ordinate our calendars and teaching programmes. We are overseen by a Principal who is responsible to the Board of Governors of the Charitable Trust.

Every child is a valued individual

A strong emphasis is placed on the development of academic potential. Close attention is paid to the skills that are required for entry to secondary schools. We are proud of our strong academic reputation at both 11 and 13+ entry. Each child is presented with the challenge of varied learning opportunities that enable our students to acquire skills and enduring interests and to grow into a sense of responsibility for the wider community.

AIMS OF THE SCHOOLS AT SOMERHILL

As part of the Schools at Somerhill, we aim to provide our children with quality education in a happy environment.
We encourage all pupils to strive for their full intellectual, social and physical potential.
We will provide our children with a broad education extending beyond the classroom to encompass sporting and cultural activities.
We value our sense of community with its emphasis on respect for one and all. A happy and secure environment enables our boys and girls to learn the importance of good manners and polite behaviour.
We aim to work hard, play hard……and enjoy doing both!
