Our Values

Active: Our children and staff are active. Sports and physical activities are an integral part of school life.
Kind: We aim for everyone to help and treat others with kindness and respect. We focus on the whole child and our staff gently discovers and shapes the character of each child.
Ambitious: We encourage each child to strive for and reach their potential. Staff members are important mentors for the children as they grow up.
Participatory: The school is an inclusive environment, where children are supported to participate in all activities. Our ethos is to encourage children to try everything in order to discover where their strengths lie. Our community - including children, parents, Old Westbournians and staff - is also an important part of what makes Westbourne House so special.

We offer the cycle to work scheme. We have the Royal London Pension Scheme for teaching staff and all support staff/non teachers are auto-enrolled onto the Westbourne House pension scheme.
What our staff say
We asked teachers and office staff to describe what gets them out of bed in the morning. Their messages give insight into our motivations and values, and the benefits of life in the Westbourne community.
