At Stover School, our vision is simple: to provide an education that nurtures, inspires, and prepares every pupil for a life of purpose, curiosity, and confidence.
We believe that school should be a place where children not only achieve academically but also flourish as individuals – discovering what makes them them. Our holistic approach blends a strong academic foundation with a rich and varied enrichment programme, enabling each pupil to find their spark.
A School Where Every Child Is Known
At Stover, we believe that academic achievement should go hand in hand with being active, creative, and caring for wellbeing. Whether it’s exploring the great outdoors, finding their voice on stage, competing in sport, or taking part in one of our many co-curricular activities – such as Kart Club, Debating, Eco Club, Horse Riding, Duke of Edinburgh or daily dog walks – every pupil is encouraged to try something new, find what excites them, and develop lifelong interests.
Learning That Matters
Our academic curriculum is rooted in inquiry-led, experiential learning. Pupils learn through doing, reflecting, and applying their knowledge in real-world and meaningful contexts.
As a potential Round Square member school, our values are aligned with the Round Square IDEALS: Internationalism, Democracy, Environmentalism, Adventure, Leadership, and Service – principles that are embedded across school life.
A Culture of Care and Connection
Stover has a longstanding reputation as a kind, caring and gentle school. Our dedicated pastoral team supports pupils throughout their journey, and we place great importance on nurturing a culture of kindness, inclusion and respect.
We model strong values by setting clear expectations for behaviour, and we work in partnership with families to ensure every pupil feels safe, known and valued.
Our beautiful natural setting is central to school life – not just a backdrop, but a space that supports wellbeing, encourages exploration, and reminds us of the importance of looking after our environment.
Proud of Our Pupils – Proud of Their Futures
Our outcomes speak for themselves: pupils consistently achieve results above the national average at GCSE, A Level and BTEC – going on to secure places at top universities, respected apprenticeships and exciting future pathways.
But more than that, they leave Stover confident, well-rounded, and equipped with the values and skills to make a difference in the world.
We are immensely proud of our pupils – not just for what they achieve, but for who they become.
