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.

TEAMWORK
We could not be prouder of the teamwork, resilience and sportsmanship that all of our year 5/6 netballers have displayed in their friendly matches so far.
A particular highlight for the girls has been the opportunity to showcase their skills in the new Elm Sports Centre.
...
In all games, they have fought tirelessly until the final whistle and have been role models for all of our school values.

THINKING HARD, THINKING SMART!
Last week, our Year 12 and Year 13 Maths students took on the UK Maths Trust Senior Maths Challenge — a national 90-minute, 25-question multiple choice challenge designed to stretch even the sharpest A level minds.
Each problem pushes students to think ...critically, apply a range of mathematical skills, and tackle unfamiliar problems with confidence — all while knowing that wrong answers cost marks!
We were incredibly proud to see our students rise to the challenge, persevere through tricky questions, and genuinely enjoy the process of problem-solving.
Fancy testing your own skills?
