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.

They will follow this up by assessing the purity of their final product during a visit to the University of Hertfordshire where they will use ...various analytical techniques including Infrared Spectroscopy, NMR and Mass Spectrometry.

We look forward to the results!

BBC STEM - SCIENCE SEASON
Last week, Sixth form students gained an insight into BBC productions and how science is used by BBC studios to make productions for channels such as the BBC Channel 4 and Netflix. They had a presentation from the director and production team of Netflix film Einstein ...and the Bomb.

Students then worked with BBC Science development executive Nathan Wren to create their own production which was presented to the Director of development Laura Davey who chose the group as winners of the best production concept of all of the schools involved.

Well done to all for developing such an creative concept. Keep an eye out for Prehistoric Fight Night!

RTX QUADCOPTER CHALLENGE - STAGE 2 BUILD AND FILY
Last week, a group of Year 9 students attended Brentwood High School as part of the RTX Quadcopter Challenge.

Students used excellent communication and teamwork skills to build a quadcopter drone, which they flew in the school's ...sport's hall. They had to overcome a number of obstacles during the construction process to ensure the drone was fully functional and able to fly.

They will continue to make modifications to the drone at school before the regional final on 6th November.
