Badminton School

Our Vision and Values

We are proud of our statement of Vision and Values and we work hard to make sure that the qualities we describe shape everything that we do. We offer a bespoke education for each girl with an emphasis on holistic learning and a culture of care and support.

It could well be said that Badminton’s current and former pupils say more about us than any statement ever can.

They are all Badmintonians, and if they sound like an unusual mix, then we’re delighted.

Our Vision
To be an internationally renowned school that provides the best preparation for thriving in a global society.
 
Our Values

For over 160 years, Badminton has nurtured and inspired pupils to succeed in all areas of life. Our small community is a powerful one where every pupil develops the skills to understand themselves and the opportunities they can look forward to in a global society. Badminton pupils are distinctly individual but share the Badminton values of:

  • Curiosity

The desire to explore, understand and learn about the world. The spark that ignites discovery and innovation. A willingness to embrace new ideas and perspectives.

  • Aspiration

The desire to achieve something greater, to set ambitious goals and work towards them with dedication
and perseverance. The belief that there are goals worthy of real endeavour and an anticipation of the
fulfilment that will come from achieving them.

  • Courage

The determination to face challenges head-on and with integrity. The readiness to stand up for what is right.

  • Courtesy

Showing respect, kindness, and consideration towards others. Being polite, thoughtful, and mindful of how your words and actions impact on those around you. Showing respect to those who are different from yourself and consideration to those who are more vulnerable.

Our Aims

To provide a holistic education that is engaging and challenging 

A Badminton education is relevant and inspirational. We work hard to create an environment where students are actively engaged in their own learning journey, where they are encouraged to develop their passions, think critically, and solve problems. By offering a diverse range of experiences and activities, we aim to ignite our students' curiosity and enthusiasm for learning.

To nurture the individual through an ethos of kindness and mutual respect

At the heart of Badminton lies a commitment to cultivating a supportive and inclusive learning environment where every individual feels valued, respected, and accepted for who they are. It seeks to cultivate empathy, compassion, and a sense of belonging among students, staff, and the wider community, promoting positive relationships and emotional well-being.

To promote an international mindset that makes a positive contribution to the wider world

At Badminton we recognise the importance of preparing our students to be global citizens who understand and appreciate diverse cultures, perspectives, and global issues. We aim to instil in them a sense of responsibility, engagement, and awareness of their interconnectedness with the world, empowering them to contribute positively to local and global communities through meaningful action and collaboration.
