ABOUT OUR NURSERY

Within the Nursery Department we strive to provide an environment where our children are able to explore, question, investigate, create and imagine. Our children are encouraged to learn through play and exploration, using our main activity room, our sand and craft areas, our outside area and the wider school grounds wherever possible.

ABOUT OUT JUNIOR CURRICULUM

Pupils in the Junior School at St John’s study a mixture of the National Curriculum along with an innovative 'learning-led' Inquiry curriculum which aims to prepare pupils for the intellectual challenges of further education and their future careers. This focuses on the development of the whole child as an inquirer, academic risk taker and problem-solver, both in the classroom and in the world outside, using our unique International Perspective in addition to links with our sister schools in Europe, South Africa and the Americas.

INTERNATIONAL STUDY

For many years, St John’s has provided a wide range of flexible study options for international students, ranging from Short Courses, through to full inclusion in mainstream school. Most importantly, we aim to help students realise their potential, whether they are staying with us for one term or for the whole of their school life.

A LITTLE ABOUT ST JOHN'S SCHOOL

We are a thriving, all through, co-educational school with children as young as two years old and as old as 16, although we are planning on reopening 6th Form in September 2022. Our curriculum is broad with a strong emphasis on bringing out the very best in all our students. We are proud of our emphasis on traditional values too.

There has been a school on the same site here in Sidmouth since 1914, so St John’s has a rich tradition. But it also has a vibrant and exciting future. We look forward to sharing it with you.
