Sir William Perkins’s School explain the importance of championing
the individual as they lead the way in personalised education
At Sir William Perkins’s School, the ethos
of championing the individual is not just a
motto but a way of life. A girls’ senior school
in Chertsey, Surrey catering for students aged
11-18, it goes beyond the traditional confines
of education to nurture talent, ambition and
generosity in every student. Recognising that
each student possesses unique talents, interests
and commitments, the school eschews a onesize-fits-all
approach in favour of tailoring
curriculums to meet individual needs.
One of the hallmarks of the school’s approach
is its emphasis on providing support for
students who have talents and commitments
beyond the classroom. Whether it be in
the arts, sports, or other areas, Sir William
Perkins’s School understands that a wellrounded
education encompasses more
than just academic achievement. Through
personalised learning plans and individualised
curriculums, students are empowered
to pursue their passions while
excelling academically.
Curiosity, ambition, and
generosity form the cornerstone
of the school’s values, shaping not
only the academic curriculum but
also the overall ethos of the institution.
Encouraging a spirit of enquiry and
exploration, Sir William Perkins’s School
instils a lifelong love of learning in
students. Ambition is celebrated and
nurtured, with students encouraged to set lofty
goals and strive for excellence in all endeavours.
Moreover, the school fosters a culture
of community, instilling in students a
sense of responsibility to give back and
make a positive impact on the world.
In a world where cookie-cutter education
often fails to accommodate the diverse needs
and talents of students, Sir William Perkins’s
School stands out as a beacon of personalised
learning and individualised support. A recent
review by Talk Education cites the school as
having “Stellar academics…combined with
a fantastic co-curricular programme (it has
a particularly fine reputation in rowing)”
and applauds the school for “ensuring
pupils’ individuality continues to be
championed – there are no identikit
girls here, just high-achievers in
charge of their own future.”
By putting the needs of each student front
and centre, the school not only prepares
them for academic success but also drives
the values and skills needed to make a
meaningful impact on the world.
Come and visit us at one of our
open events in September.
