At Arnold Lodge, we believe that every pupil should be happy, valued for their strengths and confident in their abilities. Our experience is that only when a pupil is happy and self-assured are they able to make the most outstanding progress in all areas. Our focus on the happiness of children is not at the expense of academic achievement; in fact, it’s the opposite – we stress the importance of wellbeing and happiness because it is the key to achievement. We add significant value to the pupils in school and we have a very strong history of academic success across both our Junior and Senior Schools. Our core values of Honesty, Hard Work and Kindness are central to our school ethos. The school house system reflects these core values, placing them at the heart of day to day life at Arnold Lodge. Veritas House (with truth and honesty), Dedicas House (with hard work and dedication) and Amicus House (with friendship and kindness) provide pupils with the opportunity for friendly competition in school with a broad range of House events which span Sports, Music, Art and inter House Quizzes (to name but a few) whilst also reinforcing the values and attributes that we strive for at Arnold Lodge. Arnold Lodge School’s most recent Education focused ISI report (January 2016) found that pupils receive ‘excellent teaching’, ‘excellent pastoral care’ and that the quality of our pupils’ achievements and learning is also excellent. Outstanding teaching and examination results are not enough, though – we believe in being more than an ‘examination factory’ because learning to pass examinations is simply not enough. Your child deserves an exceptional education and that is what we strive for. www.arnoldlodge.com facebook - @ArnoldLodge twitter - @ArnoldLodgeNews
