Chigwell School is a Registered Charity, number 310866, it exists to provide the best, well balanced education to its pupils.

We offer children a balanced education in a stable, traditional environment, but one nonetheless focused on the future. Renowned for our high academic standards, we set equal store by our wide range of extra-curricular activities, our well-developed sense of pastoral care, and the spiritual dimension to our life. Chigwell School is, above all, a community in which children can grow, for we seek to develop the whole person, so that ultimately he or she can enter into the fullness of life.

Working closely with parents, we aim to ensure that when our pupils leave us at the age of 18, they are ready to enter the world outside, and to play their part in it. We want Chigwellians to be:

Academically well equipped to obtain good grades in public examinations and to succeed at university.

Employable - able to work in teams, get things done, show resourcefulness, communicate verbally, on paper and by modern means of technology - and adaptable, with the capacity to learn new skills.

Capable of developing into good citizens, involved in the community.

Possessed of a soul, secure and confident in their own spiritual beliefs and philosophy of life.
