Aims & Ethos
A Foundation for Life
At Parkside, our aims and ethos shape everything we do - in the classroom, on the sports field, in the forest, and beyond. We believe that a truly great education goes far beyond academic success. It's about nurturing each child’s unique talents, building character and confidence, and helping them grow into kind, curious and capable young people. These guiding principles reflect who we are as a school, and what we hope every Parkside pupil takes with them when they leave.
The best way to truly understand what makes Parkside special is to visit us in person. We offer personalised tours throughout the year, giving you the opportunity to feel the school’s unique atmosphere, meet our dedicated staff, see our pupils in action, and explore our beautiful grounds.
Head to our Visit Us page to complete the enquiry form, and we’ll be in touch to arrange a time that suits you for a personalised tour.
