  • Downside School Vision Statement Aims of the School
    DOWNSIDE SCHOOL VISION STATEMENT Downside School’s vision - as a leading Catholic school - is to be a bright light in the world of education, illuminating the lives of young people and inspiring service in the world through experience of Benedictine culture. It will enable pupils and staff to develop their own identity through experience of a community with Christ at its centre. “The light of faith is unique, since it is capable of illuminating every aspect of human existence” Pope Francis, Lumen Fidei AIMS OF THE SCHOOL First Key Aim: To guide pupils and staff to encounter Christ through experience of a Benedictine community of faith “We mean to establish a school for the Lord’s service” (R.St.B. Prologue v.45) “The first of all things to aim at is to love the Lord God with your whole heart and soul and strength and then to love your neighbour as much as you do yourself” (R.St.B. Ch.4 v. 1-2) Second Key Aim: To be uncompromising in the pursuit of academic excellence “…in which the strong will have ideals to inspire them and the weak may not be frightened away by excessive demands” (R.St.B Chapter 64) Third Key Aim: To foster a culture of unselfish love, integrity, humility and leadership through service “And so to prepare ourselves for the journey before us, let us renew our faith and set ourselves high standards by which to lead our lives. The Gospel should be our guide in following the way of Christ...” (R.St.B.
