The Curriculum
Through our wide-ranging and creative curriculum, we aim to give children opportunity to discover themselves and develop a life-long love of learning.
Games and the Arts
Our approach to music, sports and the arts is to encourage enjoyment, participation and progress, and the results speak for themselves. Around 80 percent of leavers annually win scholarships awards in different disciplines including: academic, music, sport, DT, STEM, art and drama.
Pastoral Care
High quality pastoral care is a priority at Salisbury Cathedral School and we take a multi-faceted approach. We proactively promote a continued sense of school community to bolster everyone’s mental health. Regular form times are an open environment for children to raise any practical or emotional issues they face. Year group and whole school assemblies address pastoral themes and often feature our school chaplain to lead thought and prayer.
