I am very proud to be the Headteacher of St Peter's. We seek in our school to create an inclusive community where everybody is valued and nurtured. People routinely comment on the friendly atmosphere that exists in the school but they also notice that it has a great sense of purpose.
At St Peter's we are committed to the achievement of every single child regardless of his or her ability. I am proud to say that our most academically successful students regularly obtain the highest grades at 'A' level and go on to pursue their education at the best universities. We currently have former students following courses at Oxford, Cambridge, London, Durham, Exeter, Southampton and many more institutions around the country.
I am, however, equally proud of those students who having tried their hardest, achieve more modest results and leave school ready to take a full and active role in society.
The latter point is central to life at St Peter's: we promote Christian values and seek not only to achieve excellence 'intellectually' but also 'spiritually.' It is our belief that there is much more to school life than the rigour of examinations and we strive to stimulate our students in order that they may become caring, compassionate human beings. We were delighted to be one of the first schools in Surrey that successfully applied for "Working in Partnership with Parents Award".
We are fortunate that St Peter's is set in a pleasant environment with very good facilities and I hope you find this prospectus a useful tool for finding out more about us.
I urge you therefore to come and visit us. Talk to me, talk to staff, most importantly talk to the students - we will do all we can to help you look below the surface and discover whether St Peter's is the right place for your family.
Best wishes,
