Welcome to

Simon Balle All-through School

It is a privilege to welcome you to Simon Balle All-through School. Our website is intended to be a window into the highest quality of education that we offer here, and to give you a sense of who we are and our shared vision and values. 

We are proud of our all-through school: one school for students from the age of four all the way to eighteen. We are known for our high expectations, first class education and our innovative approach. Our curriculum is broad, and its progressive and sequential nature in every subject ensures that children are inspired and can successfully journey through fourteen years of learning with us. We believe that there is no tension between this academic ambition for all and a holistic education which supports every young person to develop their character and sense of self.

COLLISION AND LOSS - WORKSHOP
A huge thank you to @hertspolice for delivering an exceptional Collision and Loss workshop to our Sixth Form students today.

As our students take the exciting step of learning to drive, it's vital they understand the weight of responsibility that ...comes with being behind the wheel. The workshop provided invaluable insights into the consequences of poor decision-making on the road, and the importance of safe driving practices.

For many of our young adults, learning to drive isn’t just about passing a test—it’s about making responsible choices, respecting others on the road, and understanding how to stay safe. This workshop was an important reminder that every decision matters, and we’re grateful to Herts Police for helping our students prepare for the road ahead.
