At St Saviour’s, we want our children to grow in our safe and nurturing environment to be happy, responsible and respectful citizens of the world. 

Our curriculum promotes personal, spiritual, cultural and emotional growth in our children, making them reflective and compassionate learners. We believe that PSHE is at the core of everything we do and that alongside our distinct Christian ethos and school values, our children can be self-aware, compassionate and reflective. This in turn, prepares our students for learning and creates a positive growth mindset and a ‘can do’ attitude.
