We provide boys and girls aged 3 to 18 with an excellent standard of teaching and individual care, offering them a broad range of opportunities to develop every aspect of their potential. The Hereford Cathedral School culture produces well-balanced, confident and considerate young adults ready for the wider world.
Aims of Hereford Cathedral School
We hope that pupils will flourish and develop their potential in academic, spiritual, aesthetic, physical and personal terms.
As part of an ancient Cathedral foundation, and as a Choir School, which has the privilege of a Cathedral as its chapel, we are a Christian School in the Anglican tradition, although we welcome and value those of other denominations and faiths. Each pupil is encouraged to consider seriously and openly the Christian tradition within which the School is founded.
The School seeks:
to meet pupils’ academic and personal needs and to promote the acquisition of moral values; to provide an environment in which pupils feel valued and learn to work cooperatively in a community; to provide a balanced, appropriate and challenging curriculum and a wide range of extra-curricular opportunities; to encourage pupils to achieve their academic potential and to foster a climate in which teaching and learning of high quality are given central priority; to ensure a high degree, within and outside the formal pastoral structure, of personal care, support and guidance;
to respond to pupils’ aspirations and to be attentive to those of parents, and to
their views.
The School places great value on maintaining close, constructive communication with parents and seeks to establish the education of each pupil as a joint endeavour. While academic development of each pupil is a central objective of both the school and the parent body, the School seeks, through example and ethos, to prepare its pupils for life beyond school by developing certain qualities and values. These include: selfdiscipline, diligence, acceptance of responsibility and challenge, regard for proper authority, honesty, unselfishness, courtesy, fairness, trustworthiness, loyalty, and sensitivity to the needs and views of others, courage, and the capacity to look to the future.
The School aims to fulfil its charitable status through service to the local community by support for Cathedral choristers, charitable fund-raising, the loan of buildings, and other services to the community. Through competitive fee levels and the award of choristerships, scholarships, and bursaries, the pupil body reflects a wide cross section of the local population.
