Ethos and Values

The NSB Trust champions the ambition to unlock the untapped potential in every student both in and out of the classroom through hard work and high expectations, aiming for all students to become the best version of themselves.
The Trust values intellectual and physical challenges and enrichment beyond the classroom, supporting academic rigour, sports, arts, and other extracurricular activities with excellent facilities and specialist evidence-informed teaching and coaching.
A disciplined and respectful environment is considered essential for academic and personal growth, and the Trust fosters core virtues such as honesty, integrity, humility, perseverance, tolerance, and kindness. This is supported by an exceptional approach to pastoral care and inclusion and hugely talented teaching and support staff in both schools who have significant experience and expertise.
The Trust's holistic approach to education includes a wealth of spiritual, emotional, social, and cultural opportunities for all students, alongside a wide variety of leadership options which promote diversity, inclusion and excellence as well as encouragement for students to make a positive contribution to society.
The NSB Trust is committed to excellence, inclusivity, and continuous improvement for all students and staff.
