You are here: Our School » Vision and Values
We are a voluntary aided Church of England school. We were founded in 1870 by the parish of St Augustine, Kilburn through Mother Emily Ayckbowm of The Community of the Servants of the Church(CSC) who also founded schools and convents in other London parishes and in other parts of the world.
The school maintains its strong links with the parish and the local community . We are a co-educational fully comprehensive 11-19 school. We are highly inclusive and welcome students whose heritage is from all over the world, whatever their background or ability level. Diversity is embraced and celebrated here. We provide a caring, safe, positive and happy learning environment.
We want all of our community to have equal opportunities to experience Life in all its fullness (John 10:10).
We encourage all community members to “be the best that we can be in every aspect of our lives as we grow in the Christian virtues of Faith, Hope and Love (1 Corinthians 13)” so that they can go on to contribute to and serve the wider community.
We live this through our shared Christian values which are linked to our school saints. These are:
Inclusion - St Augustine
Courage - St Aiden
Joy - St Bede
Perseverance - St Columba
Kindness - St David
Integrity - St Edward
Curiosity - St Felix
Respect - St Grace
Wisdom - St Hilda
These values are reflected in all aspects of school life.
Be the best that you can be!
