We know that being in a new environment and living

We know that being in a new environment and living away from home for the first time can sometimes be quite daunting for new students. That’s why we are so thankful that our boarders create such a welcoming environment for those new to Barton Hill House, always being inclusive and having fun as the boarding family 🤗

One of the local groups our boarders connect with

One of the local groups our boarders connect with is Shaftesbury Football Club! As they love to get involved in the community and be active, the football club is a great way for boarders to blow off some steam and work on their football and team skills at the same time. ⚽️

When it comes to studying, for our boarders we highly encourage both independent and group study. We have a set time each evening after dinner where students can independently work on their studies free of distractions with support where needed.

We also encourage students to work in the library, making the most out of our computer services and getting support from others when they need it ✍🏻

Across the curriculum, we have ensured we have the best facilities available for our students. These facilities, and the hard work and dedication of our teaching staff, enable us to provide the best possible environment for our student’s wellbeing and success - with many parents and members of our community often passing on positive comments about what we do as a school, and praising our students!

We believe that attitude is one of the most important contributing factors to a student’s outcomes

Through our boarding, we have found it is a great way to teach them some independence and soft skills that can set them up for later life – developing responsibilities and an understanding for commitment that often changes their attitudes for the better

This week is part of national ‘Bike to School Week’, a week where we encourage you all to cycle or scoot to school as a way of supporting the environment.

So this week make sure you’re taking advantage and cycle about instead of taking the car - not only is it a great way to help the planet, but it is a great way to bring some healthy activity back into your busy lives and support your health and wellbeing!

If you were given a blank canvas to create the most amazing learning space, what would you do?

Here at Shaftesbury School, we’ve partnered with leading technology companies to create “The Future Classroom Project” - a fresh, innovative and inspiring approach to learning. We have created an experimental future classroom, bringing together technology, educational research, and high-quality teaching.

Set up to allow for collaboration, innovation and expression of ideas, it aims to completely change the traditional look and feel of a traditional classroom.
