Ethos

We try to capture the ethos of each school in its profile. In addition, schools are invited to submit a quote which can be displayed on their profile page which goes further and explains the unique qualities of a particular school and why parents should consider it.
Your current quote is below. If you would like to update it, please enter your new text:

Girls at Sydenham High are ambitious and open minded. They are also well rounded, intellectually curious, down to earth and happy.

Self-belief and happiness, alongside a ‘can do’ approach to every aspect of school life, enable our girls to thrive and succeed, and they leave us equipped with the skills and confidence to thrive in their future.

We believe our pupils deserve the highest standards of classroom practice, as well as exciting, challenging and enriching co-curricular opportunities, in an inspirational environment where they can be themselves and learn to be independent, resilient and confident.

Thank you. We have received your ethos quote and will action this a.s.a.p.
