Ellern Mede Schools promote the ‘Five British Values’ of democracy, rule of law, individual liberty, mutual respect and tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs. Students are supported by the spiritual, moral, social and cultural aspects of the curriculum.

EXTRA CURRICULAR SUBJECTS AND PROJECTS

There are many opportunities to explore extra-curricular subjects. These include drama through The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). Students enjoy being a part of the dramatic and musical performances that we regularly hold at the schools. On Friday afternoons, students can select their creative subjects. The results of the very talented work by our students are displayed, with their permission, around the schools and the hospitals. Creative subjects include: Photography, Clay, Printing, Textiles, Poetry and Creative Writing.
