The Jesuit educational journey aims to develop people of conscience, competence, compassion and commitment who strive to build a better world. Forming intellectually competent, good and virtuous young people through education has been the work of Jesuit schools since 1548. Throughout the world Jesuit and Ignatian schools have consistently produced the best and brightest in fields as diverse as literature, politics, science, sport and business, and even more importantly developed people able to ‘set the world on fire’ (St Ignatius). Message from the Principal Stonyhurst is a school which constantly looks to innovate and use its history and traditions as a lens on the present and the future. The opening of Stonyhurst International School, Penang will mark one of the most exciting and significant developments in our 425 years of history and we look forward to welcoming our first pupils. At the heart of everything we do is delivering an exceptional education for our pupils and ensuring that their formation, both inside and outside of the classroom, is the best in the world. We empower them to be the best that they can be, shaping leaders of the future. The Jesuit values upon which Stonyhurst was founded in 1593 continue to underpin everything we do today.
