Park School

The Park School Ethos

We are a school that promotes a multi-faith ethos, which is reflective of our student body; we strive to provide excellent academic and PHSEC education consistent with the needs of every child, enabling them to develop the skills and resilience to cope with the demands of the 21st Century. The principal factors that give our school the character and strength it has are:

• As a small independent, all through, girl’s school, from Reception to Year 11 we stress the importance of the development of each girl as a whole person. We expect each girl to develop confidence in her ability and the determination to use her talents to the full. She is encouraged to make decisions, accept responsibility for her actions, and to respect those around her.

• The principal factors that give Park School the character and strength it has is the belief that children are entitled to the highest quality education, which enables all children to achieve their full potential, and so prepare them for the opportunities, responsibilities and experiences of future life. We expect every girl to strive for selfconfidence in her ability to use her talents to the full and respect individuality.

• At the heart of Park School’s philosophy is the child-centered approach. We respect that every child is unique and has their own strengths, attributes and areas to develop. We are genuinely committed to understanding the individual and providing the environment and support, which will enable every child to flourish and succeed. We do this by respecting their needs and adapting the education to meet those needs. This philosophy underpins our approach to learning inside and outside the classroom.
