Tender description

Simon Balle is known for its high expectations, first class education and its innovative approach. Their vision and values underpin all that they do. Everyone who knows them or visits the school speaks of their distinct ethos with its strong sense of identity, values and community. This holistic approach is embedded upon strong moral and ethical principles and this includes a deep commitment to the promotion of good physical health, wellbeing, sustainability and responsible environmental stewardship. Indeed the GB have just established a new committee to challenge and influence the school's commitment to sustainability and good environmental management. Indeed, this can be seen throughout their school; from their youngest children in the Larch Centre right up to the 18-year-old students within the sixth form. All members of the Simon Balle community are set high and challenging academic and personal targets and goals; thus, they are given both the support and encouragement to succeed. As privileged adults the greatest gift the school can give to their young people is a first-class education to prepare them as ‘tomorrow's citizens’ — the leaders, parents and workers of a globally diverse and competitive world. Simon Balle are passionate advocates for all-through education. Through this they are able to serve their community and families ensuring a first-class educational experience with continuity and progression. All-through education offers many unique opportunities including shared experiences, powerful role models and in-depth knowledge.
