Our purpose here at St Peter's 8-13 is a bold one – we want to change the world by nurturing and inspiring every individual in our care

Andy Falconer,
Head of St Peter's 8-13

A growth mindset is fundamental to life here at St Peter’s 8-13, creating a safe space where children can thrive, unlock their potential and dare to live each day to the full. Our children will grow up and move on to St Peter’s 13-18, before going out into the wider world. We want to inspire them to see that they can really make a difference in that world, with the skills they have developed during their time here. Together we help each other to be the best versions of ourselves.
