Barrow Hills aspires to educate the whole child. We provide the highest levels of pastoral care, encouraging children to fulfil their aspirations and potential within an atmosphere of mutual respect and compassion.
Smaller class sizes mean that our staff know the children, their strengths as well as their weaknesses, what makes them ‘tick’ and what makes them happy. Staff give children the time they need to get to know them, they care about their happiness and aim to develop the thoughtful, caring side of their characters as well as their intellect and ambition.
We believe that education should not centre just upon academic excellence but on the development of emotional intelligence – the ability to express and manage feelings appropriately while respecting the feelings of others. It is a skillset that our children learn from their earliest days in Pre-Prep.
