They learn to uphold values that are important in a changing and diverse world.

 

We provide a stimulating environment in which our pupils are encouraged to strive for excellence in all they do, deriving satisfaction from their achievements both great and small. Individuality is highly valued and every child is encouraged to develop their talents and personality to the full.

School Ethos

Dudley House School is sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church and is affiliated to a world-wide educational system of schools, colleges and universities.
 
Adventist education is based on the belief that each child is unique and of immeasurable worth, so the systematic development of the whole person is all important. Pupils are taught to be sensitive to the needs of others, to make a positive contribution to their community, to care for the world we live in and to accept that serving others is a principle of life.
 
Our school is inclusive and welcomes all pupils. Our teaching and faith, values the family and promotes respect for all. Through worship and school life we work in partnership with families to raise responsible, well rounded, and balanced children.
 

‘Pupils live out the values of respect, inclusivity and kindness, which are underpinned by the school’s Christian ethos.
