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.

FOOTBALL REMEMBERS THE HOLOCAUST
Last week, year 9 student and Brentford FC Academy player, Rex took part in the Premier League’s ‘Football Remembers the Holocaust’ Education programme alongside Brentford Academy’s Under-14s.
Led by the Premier League since the 2018/19 season, ...the annual initiative helps educate young academy players about the Holocaust through survivor testimonies, memorial events and educational visits to Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum. The programme also encourages conversations around discrimination, remembrance and the importance of honouring the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
For Rex and his teammates, the experience provided a powerful opportunity to learn, reflect and better understand the impact of prejudice both in society and in sport.
““The experience had a big impact on me and really made me reflect on my own life. Visiting Auschwitz and hearing survivor stories was emotional, but also really important because it helped me understand the scale of what happened and why it should never be forgotten.
It made me appreciate how fortunate we are today and reminded me how important it is to treat everyone with respect and stand against discrimination. It’s something I’ll carry with me for a long time.”
A huge thank you to Rex for sharing his experience and reflections from such an important programme.
