Belmont Grosvenor is characterised by the happy relationships that exist between children, staff, and parents – we really are one big, happy family and it is this that makes our school such a special place.
We want our children to be confident, to be able to grasp all that’s on offer and have the courage to step outside their comfort zone at this important stage in their lives.
All children from three months upwards are known by name to the Headmistress, and many of our staff teach throughout the school.
As we are one school, on one site, there is a continuity of education that allows children to feel comfortable in their surroundings, and for movement up the school to be a simple, seamless, and worry-free experience.
We place great emphasis on their happiness, and provide constant support and reassurance to our children as they take their first steps towards independence. Our 'word of the week' - a virtue or character strength - re-inforces our kind and caring ethos.
Respect for ourselves, for others and for our school environment is key. A tidy appearance, well maintained environment, and taking pride in all aspects of school-work are constantly reinforced. We feel that emphasis in such areas is vital at this formative time.
Our Prep children can serve on School Council, the Eco Team or act as Fair Trade Ambassadors, ensuring they play an important role in decision-making at school.
Class lunches with the Senior Management Team, regular surveys and consultations ensure our childrens’ opinions and perspectives are understood and taken into account and our vibrant house system fosters a sense of community and plays a key role in the pastoral, academic, and sporting life of the school.
