We are proud of our modern inclusive community which is shaped by our Christian Foundation. At Brentwood we ask ‘how is this child intelligent?’ (rather than ‘how intelligent is this child?’) and believe that finding what it is that makes someone tick is the secret to a successful education and the platform for a fulfilled life. Our pupils are confident without being arrogant, they look out for each other, they do the right thing, even when no-one is looking and they respect difference. We help our pupils to solve problems. In partnership with parents, we teach them to persevere after setbacks, adopt a growth mindset, and challenge the norm. We encourage them to ask questions in class and take control of their own learning. Of course, they work hard and enjoy great success in and out of the classroom, and once they’ve left us, many go on to use and develop their leadership skills and achieve beyond their expectations, always remembering what Brentwood has taught them.That’s who we are. We are Brentwood.We are a highly supportive school that values the contributions made by a motivated and intellectually curious staff.
