St James Schools offer an education which recognises, appreciates and magnifies the unique talents inherent in every child.
It provides a loving and caring environment based on integrity, mutual trust, respect and understanding, and seeks to enrich the intellectual, emotional and spiritual development of all its pupils.
At St James, each pupil is treated as an individual and supported within an environment which develops:
Curiosity
A love of learning – through a varied, deep curriculum and the teaching of philosophy.
Empathy
Awareness and consideration of the needs and differences of others – through an equal, diverse and inclusive community.
Service
The talents, strength, wisdom and moral tenacity to offer themselves in a spirit of unselfish generosity for the benefit of humanity – through regular community action.
Stillness
The power in knowing how to be still and attentive – through meditative practices.
Resilience
A thirst for improvement – through teaching pupils to “aim for their own best in all they do”.
Joy
Because we know happy children thrive.
Within each of our schools, this unique St James philosophy is real, living and practised daily by all.
