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.

We look forward to a fantastic term together!

BORMIO 2026 - REFLECTION
Our Year 10 and Year 12 students had an incredible time on our recent ski trip to Bormio!
This trip was truly an outstanding experience, giving students the chance to develop their skiing skills, grow in confidence on the slopes, and enjoy unforgettable moments... with their peers. From early morning runs to evening activities, their enthusiasm, resilience, and teamwork stood out every single day.
Mr East summed it up perfectly: "It was fantastic to see students challenge themselves, support one another, and make the most of every moment. Their progress and positive attitude made this a truly rewarding experience for everyone involved, and I am already looking forward to next year's trip."
A huge well done to all students who took part and represented the school so brilliantly.
