Creating well-rounded individuals. • Broader horizons • Breaking barriers between disciplines. • Encouraging a positive approach to mistakes and even failure.
Parents’ Comments “An excellent school rich in its diversity and strong in its pastoral care and overall one that shows all students that they can achieve and develop into a well rounded citizen and individual.” “My daughter is happy at school and has plenty of good friends.” “The school works hard at building children’s self-confidence and independence and works in partnership with parents. “ “KECHG is a safe and happy environment for my daughter to complete this part of her education.”
A matter of perspective. • Encourage your daughter to trust us. We have a lot of experience and, as a school, consistently achieve excellent results…your daughter is part of this highly successful school and is likely to do extremely well if she acts on our advice…
Resilience • Encourage your daughter to trust herself! She is a bright young woman and is probably not being asked to do things that are beyond her capacity. She can take control of her learning, study independently, enjoy herself and succeed.
It’s strange to think that a world so perfect is actually so harsh and hostile. Life here, in our world, can be hard but we should appreciate what all the imperfections bring to our society. It’s okay for things to go wrong sometimes, and it’s okay to get upset and angry - it’s what makes us human. We have to take the bad with the good because feeling awful can only happen if you’ve felt something really great before. You do not know how lucky we all are to be able to express ourselves, so accept who you are and others too. It is these varying views and ideas that allow us to evolve and better ourselves - it brings the individuality of each person into the lives of everyone as a unit. Without that, life would be boring. The supposed ‘perfect world’ is just black and white. We are the colour. We have the potential to be a masterpiece. Because perfection is valued at nothing when compared to the beauty of human error.
