Motto & Compass

Juncta Juvant — together, we strive

Every school says it puts the child first. A school in year one has to prove it with structure rather than history: classes capped at twenty-five, specialist teachers hired before a single fee is banked, and a campus with room for every kind of child to find the thing they are good at.

The Campus

Every room, already finished

Our Karen campus was designed from scratch as a full international school, and every part of it — the pool, the track, the laboratories, the studios — was finished long before we opened our admissions list. One small cohort gets the run of all of it this year, an advantage we can only offer once.

  • Interactive smart classrooms

    Teaching spaces built for a class of twenty-five, with fitted display technology in every room.

  • School library & reading corner

    Quiet, well-stocked space built around the reading habit the British curriculum depends on.

  • 400m all-weather athletics track

    A full track wrapping the main building, usable through both rainy seasons.

  • Playing fields & outdoor activity areas

    Open green ground for football, games and the simple business of running about.

  • Multipurpose hall

    A hall with a stage, so assemblies, drama and a school production are possible rather than aspirational.

  • Computing & digital learning

    Specialist computing provision supporting coding, robotics and digital literacy across the Key Stages.

  • Music & performing arts

    Instrumental tuition and performance, with piano lessons available as an optional activity.

  • Green grounds in Karen

    Open ground to run on, in the quiet of Karen.

  • Swimming pool

    Swimming taught on site from the first term, rather than bussed out to a hired lane across town.

Every one of these is on the Open Day walking route. Come and check them yourself.
