Welcome to Verulam School

Welcome from the HeadteacherA child's time at school leaves a significant impression on them, shaping the adult that they later become. This is a responsibility that we take seriously at Verulam. Verulam students typically arrive with a sharp mind, ambition and intellectual curiosity, which is complemented by our carefully planned curriculum and co-curricular offer.Academic success is incredibly important to us. Our success in GCSE, A' Level and vocational courses speak for themselves. Alongside this, we firmly believe that the development of the whole person is vital in order to not only survive in the modern world, but also thrive.A Verulam education is like no other, and your child's time at the school will help them to reach their potential, be compassionate, a creative thinker and someone who embraces diversity and challenge. We nurture a number of positive moral attributes, that are underpinned by our core values of Excellence, Character and Respect.Mr F MoaneHeadteacher, BSc (Hons), MA, QTS, NPQH, NPQEL
