Ambition Confidence Success
Caroline Chisholm is an oversubscribed, academically successful all-through school that strives to develop young people into ambitious, highly successful, happy and resilient young adults. We make learning enjoyable from reception year right up to the sixth form. We provide a challenging academic curriculum, coupled with a very supportive pastoral system that values the strengths and talents of the individual student.

Fifty of our Year 9 students returned this week from an unforgettable trip to Ypres, where they toured the historic battlefields of Belgium and France. This experience provided profound insights into life in the trenches and the harrowing experiences of soldiers during the Great War. Beyond the battlefields, students visited significant historical memorials, including Tyne Cot Cemetery and Thiepval Memorial. These visits offered invaluable hands-on education, allowing them to connect deeply with history and appreciate the sacrifices made by those who served. We're proud of our students for engaging so thoughtfully with history.
Last Wednesday, a group of our budding Year 10 leaders stepped up to assist with Wootton Primary School's Sports Day, and they did us proud! Their dedication and enthusiasm earned them well-deserved compliments from pupils, teachers, and parents alike. Kudos to these hard working students for being such fantastic ambassadors for our school and our community.
As part of Year 1's science learning and Term 6's theme, 'Animal Kingdom', our Year 1 students have been diving into the fascinating world of animals. To make this experience even more special, they visited Hamerton Zoo last Thursday! The students had an amazing time observing and learning about the diverse animals at the zoo. We are incredibly proud of our Year 1 students for their exemplary behaviour throughout the trip. They showed great curiosity and enquiring skills! Well done, Year 1!

Last week, the Performing Arts Department took over 50 prospective GCSE Drama, Music, and Dance students to London to see the award-winning 'Back To The Future: The Musical' at The Adelphi Theatre. We all enjoyed the hugely impressive spectacle of the flying car and the exuberant energy of the cast! A fantastic experience for the students. #PerformingArts #BackToTheFuture #TheatreTrip
“Pupils are well supported for their next steps in education and training. Opportunities for extra-curricular activity are highly regarded. These include a wide range of sports, dance, drama and visual arts."
“Every teacher I have is incredibly passionate in the subject they teach. We engage with them, because they engage us. They want to be with us in the classroom.”
At Caroline Chisholm School we are very proud of our Alumni. Our students go on to achieve in a wide range of fields and often say that the work ethic, social skills and confidence they develop during their time with us has helped them in their careers.
We always enjoy hearing from our Alumni and If you recently finished with us in the last 5 years, we'd love to hear how you're getting on!
