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.

REVOLTING RHYMES
Last night, Year 4 performed a show-stopping production of Roald Dahl’s Revolting Rhymes. We could not be prouder of their oracy, acting, and confidence throughout the play. From prop-making and programme design to their fantastic performances on stage, every child played a ...part in bringing the magic to life.
What a memorable evening!

IS IT CAKE?
Our Art enrichment students have been hard at work creating their own masterpieces, inspired by Wayne Thiebaud. They have completed ultra-realistic painted clay cake slices that look almost good enough to eat. In fact, they nearly became Mr Pooley’s pre-Easter snack.
Well... done to all involved.

GEOGRAPHY IN ACTION
Our Year 10 Geographers recently visited Walton-on-the-Naze to carry out both urban and coastal fieldwork as part of their GCSE course.
Throughout the day, students gathered a wide range of primary and secondary data, including traffic counts and beach profiles, ...developing key skills needed for analysis and evaluation in their exams.
A fantastic day of hands-on geography in action — safe to say the trip really made waves and helped put their knowledge on the map.

CROWNED CHAMPIONS!
Our Year 9 boys were selected to compete at the Indoor County Athletics Championships after their outstanding top 6 finish in the County Cup Athletics Finals last year. This marks the first time Simon Balle has ever been invited to this prestigious event, making it a huge ...honour for the team.
The boys were exceptional all day, delivering top performances across every event and matching their personal bests. Their consistency and determination saw them dominate the competition, achieving top 3 finishes across disciplines. A special shoutout goes to the relay team, who were simply outstanding — storming to victory and winning by an incredible 10 metres!
In their first appearance at the event, the Year 9 boys were crowned overall champions!
We are incredibly proud of this talented group and can’t wait to see what they achieve in the upcoming district and county athletics competitions this season.
