Mission Statement

At Sherborne Prep School, we are encouraged to think imaginatively, to work independently and to care for others and for our world. By learning to do our best, we are able to achieve our potential and experience the real joy of learning.

Sherborne Prep School aims that pupils will:

• pursue excellence through the realization of personal best

• develop a strong sense of self-discipline in preparation for later life through a fair and consistent disciplinary system

• demonstrate good manners, proper values, and high standards of presentation in their person and work

• be nurtured as individuals to find and develop their own array of talents

• develop their moral and spiritual welfare based on the values of compassion and empathy with others through the teaching of values based on Christian principles, in order to make good citizens

• develop as whole people spiritually, emotionally, socially, intellectually, culturally and physically

• become independent and life-long learners who think creatively and imaginatively and embrace the joy of learning.
