From the Blenheim High School
A co-educational institution in Surrey with cutting-edge amenities is called Blenheim High School.
Students at Blenheim are deliberately encouraged to cultivate the qualities of wanting to improve, being open to new ideas, working hard, and exhibiting resilience. This is part of the school's growth mindset attitude.
The ten Blenheim behaviours, which are equally accessible to all students regardless of background, circumstance, or aptitude, are also substantially influenced by growth mindset.
Our curriculum is created to guarantee that students of all abilities reach their full potential and receive the best results on public exams.
We aggressively encourage our pupils to become autonomous learners as we prepare them to assume their position in society.
The incorporation of iPads into the curriculum in order for every student to either possess or have access to one has been a part of this process.
The iPad enhances regular instruction and makes it simple for students to access a wide range of interactive and cutting-edge resources.
We have stringent requirements on behaviour both inside and outside of the classroom and have high standards for uniform, including a number of "non-negotiables."
Visitors frequently remark on the school's serene, focused atmosphere.
A tour of the school and the information in our prospectus should help you make an informed decision when selecting a secondary school.
