About Great Ballard School

GREAT BALLARD SCHOOL A co-educational school from 2-16, set in the beautiful landscape of the South Downs National Park, close to Chichester and Arundel. We believe wellbeing is the foundation for learning and we pride ourselves on our excellent pastoral care. The school maintains a proud reputation for academic excellence, for music, for the arts and for sport. But, above all else Great Ballard is a family in which everyone matters and no one is invisible. It is a school that cares, a school built completely around its pupils, a school with a heart. Our duty to equip young people for an unpredictable future has never been more apparent. Our curriculum is broad, forward thinking and outward facing and we encourage pupils to look beyond our idyllic West Sussex bubble and to develop the skills required to adapt to change and genuinely make a difference in their world. We focus on leadership, problem solving and communication while covering a broad range of traditional subjects. We also nurture a special passion for technology, computer science and communication skills which we champion without ever compromising the highest standards of literacy and numeracy. We see unique potential in all our children and support them to become the very best versions of themselves. Our educational approach is built around the 4Hs (Head, Hand, Heart and Health) with an ethos rooted in building the strongest relationships and on empathy and respect. Our young people recognise a need to be role models but also to lift others, to serve and to give. We love to take education beyond the classroom, making the most of our wonderful location and prioritising creativity, teamwork and pupil well-being. While we celebrate achievements right across the co-curricular range, we also acknowledge the value of the arts and exercise in shaping happy, healthy and resilient young lives.
