Brentwood School

Word From The Head

Michael Bond

A Warm Welcome from our Headmaster

Our values are at the centre of everything that we do. Although the words from our school motto - Virtue, Learning, Manners - were written in 1622, they are remarkably timeless. They guide our core purpose in helping young people discover and develop their talents with both self-assurance and humility.

Our students are kind and ambitious and seek to make a positive contribution in the present and the future: our role is to help them achieve their successes - in whatever shape they may come - without any sense of entitlement.

Instilling Lifelong Values

We need to prepare our students for a fast-paced and ever-changing world. They will need to solve problems we don't yet know about (in addition to those we do) and many will take on jobs that don't yet exist. Our students are active participants in this journey and distinguish themselves as enterprising young people who always strive to be the best version of themselves. They excel in many areas - academically, in the visual and performing arts and in sports.

Of course they work hard and enjoy great success in and out of the classroom and once they've left us, many go on to use and develop their leadership skills and achieve beyond their expectations, always remembering what Brentwood has taught them.

That's what makes us Brentwood.

Headmaster
