Howard House School
I am exceptionally privileged to lead a team of truly dedicated staff, who are the lifeblood of this school
Charlotte de Oliveira – Head of School
Independent school for pupils aged 11 to 18
Howard House School aims to encourage intellectual curiosity, critical perception and respect for learning. We strongly encourage individual responsibility, self-esteem and confidence as well as care, concern and respect for others.
We believe it is our duty to promote the development of personal values to help meet the challenges of a complex world and to encourage a commitment to contributing positively to the community and wider society.
To do this, we provide appropriate challenge and accreditation opportunities, to develop the personal resources necessary to be happy and successful in a world that can present challenges.
We would like all our students to respect and celebrate the differences between people, and to question reasonably, but to treat with compassion and understanding the position of others. Our students are encouraged to be flexible thinkers and to become life-long learners.
Pupils value what the school provides for them and the positive relationships they have with teachers and other staff. When asked what he likes about the school, by the inspector, a pupil replied, ‘What is there not to like?’
