Chestnut Grove School
Student achievement and development are at the heart of everything we do at Chestnut Grove.
Nearest underground station: Balham
Our aim is that all students will leave school with not only the qualifications but also the social, learning and technological skills they will need in their future lives.
As a visual arts specialist college, creativity is an important value, alongside high ambition and social responsibility. We want our students to be able to take an active part in life of the 21st century and to have the confidence to embrace the changes this will inevitably bring.
Tolerance and appreciation of difference is also a core value. We are proud of the multi-cultural, multi-lingual nature of our school, which we all believe enriches it immeasurably.
Chestnut Grove is a place of learning for all. We believe people should be life-long learners, so we take seriously continuing professional development of our staff.
Pride is, above all perhaps, important to us. We believe that students should take pride in their own achievements, the achievements of others and that of Chestnut Grove itself. We take seriously our motto, which is: A Creative, Learning community.
