The school motto translates from Latin as ‘To be, rather than to seem’.

Values and vision

Pupils are encouraged to be themselves, and are excited about learning and have a real thirst for knowledge. They thrive in the music and art rooms, on the games field and stage. Small class sizes ensure staff can plan their teaching to ensure every pupil is treated as an individual. Teaching staff simply want the best for all our pupils and will do all they can to help them achieve to the best of their own abilities.

At the very centre of S. Anselm’s values is creativity – whether through the individual or the community. Students travel to watch theatrical plays at Stratford, to play in national sports tournaments or sing in mass choral days.

ISI

“Pupils personal development is excellent. Pupils are thoughtfully aware of the needs of others within the school community and beyond. They develop a strong moral sense, discussing issues of justice in the wider world and in their own experience.”

I have been a school-level user of Schrole for recruiting for the last three hiring cycles and have found the platform they provide to be intuitive and comprehensive. The user interface stands out from others in the market as a crisp interface with the right level of features included at the right places. For me, the top two features are the ability to create school-specific application questions for applicants, and the availability of a short and long form applicant documentation PDF. If you’re looking for a recruiting platform, I highly recommend considering Schrole.
