VIRTUAL TOUR

Chorister School (3-11)

Chorister School Welcome

Chorister School prides itself on the holistic education offered to our students and the strength of our community. We are academically ambitious for all with a rigorous curriculum that encourages imagination, questioning and cooperation. Music and the arts play a central role throughout the school and our sports and physical education program offer a wide scope for development in this area.

Our community is what makes us truly special. The children are happy and engaged while the teachers strive to get the best out of each individual. The parents are supportive and enjoy the opportunity to be able to be fully involved in the life of the school. We are guided in all we do by the MARK values; Moral Integrity, Ambition, Responsibility and Kindness. These are evident throughout the school in the strength of relationships and respect shown by all.

I am looking forward to my term as the Interim Head at Chorister School. I have been with Durham Cathedral Schools  Foundation for four years as the Director of International Operations and in that time have visited our overseas schools in Qatar, Dubai and Kenya on many occasions. I have been a Head in Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and England and know what makes a good school. The key ingredients are all in place here at Chorister School and I am proud to be part of its journey.

Thank you for your interest in the Chorister School. Please contact our admissions team to make an appointment to visit us where you are assured of a warm welcome.
