Most importantly we want all students to share experiences with friends better enabling them to balance the demands of learning alongside personal development.
The sense of teamwork extends to working with our parents and Caludon families who share our goal of preparing our children for their bright futures and we enjoy working together in making this a reality. We know how personal development and pastoral care are vital components of a happy and healthy school life for our children and are committed to fully knowing our students well and to maintaining positive channels of communication to best personalise their school experience.
