Pangbourne is a place where the individual matters. First and foremost, we are a ‘people place’. We are committed to the personal development of our pupils in the fullest sense. They are encouraged to work hard towards academic success and we are proud of the results which they achieve, but just as important is the development of their characters: their confidence and values, their creative and physical skills and their appreciation of who they are and what they can contribute to the world.
Our Flag Values of Kindness, Selflessness, Moral Courage, Initiative, Industry, Resilience and Integrity underpin all we do as a College. They are rooted in our Christian ethos and go a long way to prepare our pupils for life's challenges and the responsibilities of adulthood. Our aim is to equip Pangbournians with the strongest possible foundations for their future.
We know that young people today face many challenges, not least of which is their mental health and wellbeing. We are strongly committed to providing the best pupil welfare individually tailored for each person, and this has been recognized by inspecting and external organizations.
We provide all the other things a good school should: challenging academic curriculum, plenty of sport and co-curricular opportunities, and 230 acres of wonderful Berkshire countryside in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Our small size, focus on the individual and community feel are what make us special.
The only way to experience the authentic Pangbourne is to visit us and meet our people. We are delighted to welcome visitors throughout the academic year and encourage you to contact us and make an appointment.
The primary aim of any school is to boost the academic performance of its pupils under the guidance of a committed and knowledgeable team of teachers. Pangbourne realizes that aim consistently, with recognition by the Department for Education in 2018 of some of the best A Level progress scores in the country.
Students at Pangbourne are challenged to do the very best they can and are exposed to a variety of engaging lessons, memorable trips and plentiful learning tools to bring each and every subject to life. A major aim of the past few years has been to encourage pupils to take independent ownership of their study and approach work in a reflective and positive way.
Teachers provide extra support to students, particularly those undergoing public examinations, through academic clinics and subject-specific societies which solidify their academic vocabulary and stretch the most able pupils.
Small class sizes ensure more one-to-one time with an empathetic and caring group of teachers. Those pupils with the ability to take their learning to the highest level are aided by a support structure which enables them to realize their ambitions.
