The school believes that the most effective education is achieved by a broad approach, with just enough pressure for pupils to flourish in an atmosphere where achievement can be measured against individual potential, rather than relative position in a peer group. Attributes such as compassion and a strong sense of humour are encouraged and in the end one hopes that each boy has enjoyed a happy and successful life at the school.
Art and Music are given equivalent status to the so called academic subjects and the library is regarded as the most important room in the school. There is a wide programme of sports and games most of which are played at the Bank of England Club.
