About St James' School
St. James’ School is built upon the tenet of family; caring, encouraging, supporting, and inspiring. Deliberately small, we passionately believe an extraordinary education is built upon strong, trusting relationships. At St. James’, these are immediately obvious.
Our dynamic curriculum blends seamlessly through our Senior School, ages 11-18. St. James’ pupils are allowed time to follow their own passions within an environment that creates opportunities both in the here and now, but also for the future.

Headmistress
Ms Trudy Harris
Our Ethos
Education in its purest form is about unlocking potential, discovering character and achieving dreams. Education is a never-ending journey. Some children charge, skip, and stroll, whilst others need a hand to hold. Not everyone begins this journey at the same starting point, but at St. James’, our philosophy focuses on the excellence and potential within each and every child in their pursuit of self-fulfilment.
At St. James’ we don’t just educate, we Future Proof. We develop, through a broad and enriched curriculum to ensure the skills that don’t expire. Young Enterprise, Modern Languages, Problem-Solving, and public speaking begin at an early age which help inculcate life-long habits.
