Nurturing happy children

Welcome to Shoreham College. You will find us to be a vibrant school, in the heart of our community, where we work together with our families in the complicated and joint endeavour of preparing our young people for life in the 21st century.

Our belief is that happy children are successful children and we nurture our young people to be:

• aware of their potential to do almost anything if they invest the effort and hard work;
• compassionate individuals who care for each other and the planet and play an active role in the wider community;
• self-driven achievers who live up to altruistic ideas and values;
• confident in themselves and to experience success, in its broadest terms.

Shoreham College is a family school that has the privilege of educating pupils from the age of 3 to 16. Pupils in our junior school benefit from specialist resources and teaching, pupils in the senior setting benefit from the breadth of our curriculum as well as plentiful leadership opportunities. All pupils benefit from being known and celebrated as the unique individual they are, our size allowing for this in a way that larger schools cannot. Our inclusive ethos sets us apart and allows us to be a true family school, recognising what each child has to offer, rather than testing to see whether they fit a mould. We welcome our children and support them to achieve their potential. For some of our children that will be an Oxbridge pathway, for others it might be an apprenticeship and for others to follow their passion for the arts or sport. Whatever a young person’s aspirations, we will provide a stimulating and nurturing environment, tailored for the individual; indeed this is a key strength of Shoreham College.

Our 11-acre site is friendly and open, and has outstanding facilities; a modern sports hall, specialist design technology and science resources, ICT suites, heated swimming pool, well-maintained sports fields and open spaces; all of which provide a safe and healthy environment for your child to learn and grow.

Please come and visit us: talk to our staff, meet our wonderful children and see our beautiful setting. Visit our forest school, enjoy our art studio and please do take your time. Choosing a school is an important decision and we understand and respect the responsibility you place in us, when you choose Shoreham College. We will extend the warmest of welcomes to you and your family, at any time of the school year.
