At Nottingham High School we have a well-deserved national reputation both for our academic achievements and for the high standards achieved in the wide range of activities we offer. We are proud of our tradition, but at the same time have a strong sense of purpose for the future.

We know that your son is unique and we will develop both his intellect and character to the full. We are determined to preserve the virtues of a traditional academic education in which he will acquire a positive attitude to his studies and to life as a whole. We will offer him a wealth of wider opportunities, so his strengths can be developed and he can be challenged to achieve beyond his expectations. Above all he will enjoy his time with us and develop as an individual.

At the same time we value every pupil. By placing your son in the care of a personal tutor for the duration of his time in the School he will become an integral part of our caring community, and we will work with you to promote his welfare at all times.

I very much hope that I will have the pleasure of welcoming you and your family, personally, to the School so that I can show you how we turn your aims into a reality. You will also meet some of our existing pupils and will see how your ambitions for your son can be achieved in partnership with us.

I very much look forward to meeting you.

 

Kevin Fear, Headmaster
