About The Charter School East Dulwich

The Charter School East Dulwich exists to inspire young people from across its diverse local community to develop the character and expertise they need to succeed in adult life - personally, economically and in good citizens. We teach our students to be curious, creative, courageous and caring. They will leave us happy in themselves, excited about their future and ambitious to achieve.

The Charter School East Dulwich provides a holistic education that allows all of our students to develop the character and expertise they need to succeed in life - personally, economically and as good citizens.

All students study at least to GCSE level. The School curriculum builds methodically on the foundations laid in primary school. It is coherently sequenced to provide all students with the opportunity to progress to the next stage of their education, be it academic, professional or vocational.

The curriculum is made ‘desirably difficult’ for all students. Every individual receives the right combination of support and challenge to achieve their personal best, irrespective of background or personal circumstance. The School makes generous provision for a range of enrichment activities through which students further develop the individual interests and aptitudes that allow them to flourish.  

The curriculum explicitly encourages students to have confidence in themselves, care for each other and their environment, be curious about the world and have the courage and creativity to change it for the better.
