Our vision

Our vision at Westville House School is simple: deliver educational excellence to maximise the potential of every child.

We promote a family ethos and values and nuture well-rounded and happy children prepared for a life beyond Westville.

From the minute a child begins their journey at Westville, they are valued as individuals. Our wish is that each child has an education which is tailored to their needs; to nurture, challenge and excite.  We want our children to thrive, learn from each other and build enduring friendships.

Our staff

We have a team of committed and talented teachers, and offer specialist teaching across key subject areas, including English and Maths, Music, Drama, Languages and Art.  Staff are supported to develop a diverse and challenging curriculum and to explore varied and enriching opportunities for learning both inside and outside of the classroom.

Beyond the classroom

We encourage our staff to celebrate all talents and there are a host of extra-curricular clubs designed to suit every child.  As  children progress they are exposed to a variety of activities from cultural visits to skiing and adventure training.  

The school’s motto Quotidie Opus Novum – something new every day – sums up the excitement and opportunity of coming to Westville House, for both pupils and staff alike.
