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.

REWIND
Rewinding to last January, when Simon Balle Sport proudly competed at the Lea Valley District Schools Indoor Athletics Championships.
Students from Years 7 to 11 represented the school with determination, skill and outstanding sportsmanship. From racing down the track to jumping... to new heights and pushing their limits in every event, every student gave their all and did themselves and the school proud.
We are now looking ahead with excitement to this month’s championships and can’t wait to see our athletes back in action once again.

STUDY PRE AT A LEVEL
Consider your A Levels? Why not explore Philosophy, Religion, and Ethics (PRE) at Simon Balle!
PRE isn’t just about exploring the big questions in life – it develops critical thinking, ethical reasoning, debate, and analytical skills that are highly valued by ...universities and employers alike. If you enjoy questioning the world around you, discussing moral dilemmas, or exploring beliefs and values, PRE could be the perfect choice.
Studying PRE can open doors to a wide range of future pathways, including Law, Philosophy, Politics, Psychology, Theology, Education, and more. It’s also an excellent foundation for careers in journalism, public service, counselling, and research.
At Simon Balle, we are proud of our strong academic record. With often slightly smaller class sizes, students receive excellent support and guidance. Last year, 71% of PRE students achieved an A grade or above, demonstrating our commitment to helping students achieve their very best.
Take the opportunity to challenge yourself, explore your beliefs, and gain skills that last a lifetime. PRE at A Level could be your next step to success!
