At Buckswood teaching is a calling, a vocation and not just not a job.

Buckswood does not recognise the concept of the average pupil; there is no box-ticking template to be followed here, because every scholar will be treated differently, with an education tailored to his or her own aptitude. Buckswood’s small class sizes, expert subject specialists and the uniquely inspiring environment, come together to produce an educational experience unlike any other. Buckswood instills a can-do spirit of adventure in its scholars who are willing to try something new, understanding that failure is not to be feared, knowing that new experiences make for richer people. A wealth of stimulating and thought-provoking activities and opportunities are complemented by traditional classroom studies. The Buckswood approach opens the mind and produces well-rounded and interesting individuals – Learners Today, Leaders Tomorrow.
