A Headmaster Reflects

It is far too infrequently that I reflect upon what has been achieved by the hard work of all the staff under my tenure. In the last 4 years we have:
• Had 100% success rate at CE
• Sent pupils to schools all over the country, ranging from Strathallen in Perthshire, to Blundells in Devon, and everywhere in between.
• We have sent pupils to some of the most prestigious schools with the most stringent entrance exams.
• We have achieved international success, sending pupils to some of Europe’s finest schools.
• We have achieved 79 scholarships and awards!

But perhaps most important of all we have been successful in finding whatever it is in each and every child that allows them to feel good about themselves, to feel self confident, and to feel comfortable about moving onto the next stage of their education.

S. Anselm’s really is a “gem” of a school set in stunning surroundings here in the Peak National Park. I am hugely proud of not only the pupils and their success but also the fantastic teamwork and dedication that my staff have put in over the last 4 years.
