Welcome to
Simon Balle All-through School
It is a privilege to welcome you to Simon Balle All-through School. Our website is intended to be a window into the highest quality of education that we offer here, and to give you a sense of who we are and our shared vision and values.
We are proud of our all-through school: one school for students from the age of four all the way to eighteen. We are known for our high expectations, first class education and our innovative approach. Our curriculum is broad, and its progressive and sequential nature in every subject ensures that children are inspired and can successfully journey through fourteen years of learning with us. We believe that there is no tension between this academic ambition for all and a holistic education which supports every young person to develop their character and sense of self.

YEAR 4 - ROMAN DAY
Year 4 have had a fantastic morning today as they were transported back to Roman Britain. Dressed as Roman citizens, the children took on the roles of craftsmen, soldiers and traders. They created mosaics, wrote on wax tablets, crafted oil lamps and explored the bustling life... of a Roman town. They thoroughly enjoyed uncovering and crafting replica artefacts, piecing together the fascinating secrets of Roman life. A truly memorable experience for all.
Further activities this afternoon!

CHEMISTRY VISIT
Last week, our Year 13 Chemistry students visited the University of Hertfordshire to attend talks on a range of analytical techniques, including NMR, ICP-OES, Mass Spectrometry, Gas Chromatography, and Infrared Spectroscopy. Students also had the opportunity to bring along their... own synthesised Aspirin samples for analysis.
It was an excellent day and a fantastic opportunity to deepen their understanding and experience real-world applications of their studies. A big thank you to the @uniofherts for hosting us and providing such an inspiring experience.
