It is not enough to hope that through osmosis our youngsters will have necessarily absorbed the values on which their future decisions should be founded. We recognise that the impact of peer pressure can be very great. Are those peers always going to be offering wise counsel? It can take courage, moral grounding and a secure sense of self to make the ‘right’ decision when faced with challenging situations. How valuable a preparation for life it is to have spent time collaborating, learning to respect alternate views while not sharing them, to know how to say ‘No’ clearly, firmly but not angrily or offensively. In fact we all continue to hone these skills throughout our lives, trying to be forward thinking and open to new ideas, but not swayed by every new fad and fashion. The groundwork needs to be done in schools. Pupils must have repeated opportunities to practise the character traits that we wish to encourage. Whether it is younger pupils being helped or mentored by older pupils, pupils raising money to help a worthy cause, or lending a listening ear to support a friend in need, these actions will build the character of the individual.

The importance of character education Rachael Cox, Head of Junior School at all ability all-through school LVS Ascot, discusses the importance of character education in developing students for the future

She

­20 LVS Ascot said: “Character isn’t a one-size fits all concept, it is a combination of traits that sets people apart so they can achieve their dreams. I think LVS Ascot is probably much further along on this journey than other schools”. Nicky, who has been MP for Loughborough since 2010, was invited to LVS Ascot’s theatre where she discussed with parents of pupils from the junior school up to sixth form the benefits developing positive character traits brings. She detailed the advantages this provides to students when applying for jobs and, having been Secretary of State for Education from 2014 to 2016, was perfectly placed to talk about key strengths that employers are looking for from students. She said employers are looking for candidates that they can train fully in a specific role, but who arrive with key personal skills that will help them to succeed within that training and career. Nicky said: “The LVS Ascot learning values including self-confidence and collaboration, risk taking and resilience, creativity and curiosity are great values that we all want to see developed in our young people. The resilience, empathy and initiative traits will really help set the pupils apart in terms of making a success of life, and alongside persistence when things don’t go so well those are the things employers will say they want and they help in terms of high academic attainment too”. In addition to the learning values and skills being woven into everyday life at LVS Ascot, specific engaging events have allowed the students to focus on the skills and their importance, such as during Outdoor Learning Day. All 160 students in the LVS Ascot Junior School enjoyed a captivating day of activities in October as Outdoor Learning Day took them from the classroom into the school’s 25 acre grounds to explore and discover new Pupils in Year 5 made the exciting trip to Stonehenge things, with some students making the trip to the World in Wiltshire where they discovered the history of the Heritage Site of Stonehenge in Wiltshire.

­26 St Mary’s School Hampstead encourages more active participation in the class. In turn, as our pupils are interested in the lessons, we’ve seen an improvement in knowledge retention. Technology also offers numerous benefits for teachers. Direct access to the internet and online resources through our interactive whiteboards allows teachers to enhance and build on more traditional teaching methods. Another advantage that we’ve seen is improved sharing of resources and collaboration between colleagues. In place of the IT suite, we were able to open a new Science Room to support and enhance the Science curriculum. This new facility allows outdoor learning to become a reality. For instance, in the curriculum there is a specific experiment on habitats. The children create different habitats for woodlice in the classroom such as damp, warm, dark or light. We put wood lice in this fake environment and see which one they go to. As we are lucky enough to have an amazing outdoor space, we are then able to go outside to find the woodlice in our garden and explore the habitats that they naturally choose. Our focus on technology is equally balanced with an emphasis on creative and physical development.

There will always be some parents who prefer single sex schooling. Every child is different and one size does not necessarily fit all, that we accept. But, at the end of the day, good teachers are the key to academic success. That – and happy students. We believe our future plans for Mount House will tick both of these boxes.

The late Agatha Christie said: “One of the luckiest Following an extensive consultation with pupils, the things that can happen to you in life is to have a happy playground was redesigned to enable more activities to childhood.” Here at Orchard House School we aim to take place. This has been hugely successful. Alongside maintain above all a happy ethos. But we don’t rely on traditional playground games, themed days have been luck to do this. We have introduced a number of initiatives introduced to encourage further interaction and these to build a fulfilling and productive environment for the too have proved a winner with the children. whole Orchard House school community. We have also introduced breathing techniques, and According to the Mental Health Foundation, mental brief yoga sessions and meditation takes place daily, as a health problems affect about 1 in 10 children. Problems calm and relaxed child will always perform better. Indeed, that include depression, anxiety and conduct disorder are despite being a non-selective school for children entering often a direct response to what is happening in a child’s life. Of course, the vast majority of children are resilient, happy people but every child may on occasion need help to rebound back to a state of happy equanimity. The issue for any school is how to recognise a child with a growing issue and help him or her with early intervention. Following extensive discussions, my staff and I have introduced additional whole school initiatives which we believe have had a significant impact. We began the process with a review of the school’s Pastoral Plan. The new plan has broken new ground in that it involves children in their own pastoral care and enables staff to monitor much more closely how each pupil feels. A simple questionnaire, easily completed by the children, allows each child to record his or her feelings confidentially. This in turn helps the children to enjoy school life to a fuller extent, as it alerts teachers to any little anxieties or concerns and allows them to address these quickly before they escalate. In addition to working with individual children, the school has a specialist Life Coach who works with children to help each to resolve any emotional queries, often equipping a child with a tool kit he or she can use on other occasions to overcome difficulties. We have at nursery and reception, our academic results at 11+ also introduced sessions for both staff and parents.

Gillam

Faraday is a small, independent prep school situated at the historic setting of Trinity Buoy Wharf, close to the City and Canary Wharf. Faraday School is committed to giving every child a first-class education in the arts and sciences, drawing as a resource upon the Core Knowledge approach, which imparts knowledge through traditional academic subjects. Although we believe in a traditional approach, our lessons reflect modern thinking on how children learn most effectively and our small classes and quality staff allow for a very personal approach to learning. We feel literacy and numeracy are important, however, our curriculum is broad and stimulating, including specialist teaching in French, Music and Physical Education. Our aim is to educate the whole child through a rich curriculum with many stimuli, in order to support an atmosphere of life-long learning. We also provide a wide range of after school clubs and, to help working parents, a private school bus runs before and after school from 22 different locations, including south of the river. We were founded in 2009 and maintain strong links with our sister school, Maple Walk, in North West London. Our setting beside the , opposite the iconic O2 arena and beside the Trinity Lighthouse, gives our pupils an inspirational location in which to learn. We are fortunate enough to be surrounded by creative industries and we make the best of all that London has to offer, with regular trips to museums, historic attractions and galleries. Our June 2014 ISI Inspection found Faraday School pupil attainment to be “well-above national age-rated expectations.”

Lyndhurst House Pre-Prep & Prep School for boys was founded by Vernon Davies in 1952, in a tall, handsome Willett-style building in leafy Lyndhurst Gardens, Hampstead. For over 60 years Lyndhurst has played a full part in the range of local independent educational provision, sending on its thirteen year olds to the many renowned senior schools in London, and some to boarding further afield with an excellent record of academic success and achievement, matched by a strong participation in sports, music and art. Pupils develop a good knowledge of their own and other cultures and traditions. Visits to theatres, museums and art galleries feature prominently throughout the year. A significant strength of the school is the way pupils from a wide range of cultural backgrounds work and play together harmoniously. One of the smaller prep schools in the area, Lyndhurst provides a structured but individually responsive education from reception at four-plus up to Common Entrance and scholarship at 13, delivered by an experienced, well- qualified, and stable staff team, and the abiding characteristics of its pupils seem to be a lively enthusiasm and sense of engagement and belonging. Lyndhurst House is a non-denominational school.
