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.

SIXTH FORM INDUCTION
Tomorrow, we look forward to welcoming students for the first of our two Sixth Form Induction Days.
These induction days are an important part of preparing for September, giving students the chance to build confidence by becoming familiar with their subjects and ...what to expect in Sixth Form. They also help students begin developing the independent study skills and habits needed to succeed on Level 3 courses, while bridging the gap between GCSEs and Sixth Form study.
The induction days will also give us the opportunity to showcase our enrichment offering and the wider experiences available as part of Sixth Form life.
We look forward to seeing everyone and helping students make the best possible start to the next stage of their journey.

THE GREAT GET TOGETHER
On Friday, our Year 12 Politics students were delighted to be invited by Josh Dean MP, Member of Parliament for Hertford and Stortford, to attend a coffee morning marking the 10th anniversary of The Great Get Together.
Inspired by Jo Cox’s belief that “we ...have far more in common than that which divides us”, the event celebrated the values and connections that bring communities together. It gave our students the opportunity to speak with their local representative about the issues that matter most to them and to engage thoughtfully in discussion about public life and community.
Taking time out of their final school Sports Day, our students represented Simon Balle brilliantly and were excellent ambassadors for the school in the local community.
Thank you to Josh Dean MP for the invitation and for hosting such a thoughtful community event.
