They see them as individuals.” Ballard Parent At Ballard, we provide a Bespoke Education for our pupils. We firmly believe that all young people should aspire, be challenged and thrive both inside and outside the classroom. We work hard with the pupils to tailor the education we provide to their individual needs; we stretch and challenge a pupil’s area of aptitude or interest and provide consolidation and support in an area that may need a little more support. We help them to develop self-awareness and strategies for success, encouraging them to excel, delighting in their confidence and progress, and providing the tools they will need to be successful in the future. Ballard believes that happy children perform well in the classroom, so our academic and pastoral teams work closely to provide challenge and support in equal measure. Higher thinking skills are clearly mapped out in our curriculum ensuring pupils can transfer and apply their learning to different contexts. As well as celebrating success, the School has keen focus on encouraging and recognising pupils’ approach and efforts. We continuously review, track and monitor progress to ensure that every pupil is doing their very best. This helps our learners to become pro-active and independent, reflective and resilient risk-takers, and interested and interesting future leaders. Ballard also recognises the benefit of providing our pupils with responsibilities and leadership opportunities from an early age. It’s a key part of the educational experience we provide across all areas of School, especially our mentoring programme. Whether it’s a Sports Elite pupil helping in a PE lesson or our Year 5 children helping Reception with their reading, the benefits are clear to all involved. “The many opportunities allow children to explore their surroundings and further their own learning.” ISI IN THIS SECTION ABOUT BALLARD MEET THE HEAD MEET THE LEADERSHIP TEAM PSHE AT BALLARD WHY BALLARD BESPOKE EDUCATION SEND POTENTIAL PLUS EXTRA CURRICULAR PASTORAL CARE FAMILY, MENTORING & FUN SUCCESS LOCAL & INTERNATIONAL BALLARD STEM BALLARD ARTS BALLARD SPORT BALLARD LIFE FOREST SCHOOL STORIES & TESTIMONIALS PHOTO & VIDEO GALLERY COMMUNITY & CHARITY OUR HISTORY ALUMNI STORIES & TESTIMONIALS PHOTO & VIDEO GALLERY NEWS school 27/10/21 Ballard Pupils Speak Up About Climate Change STEM 07/05/21 STEAM Challenge Success for Ballard Pupils arts 02/06/20 ballard@home – our School’s community forms a virtual choir to stay connected with each other next OPEN MORNINGS STORIES & TESTIMONIALS PHOTO & VIDEO GALLERY VISIT OUR VIRTUAL OPEN DAY next Ballard School Fernhill Lane, New Milton, BH25 5SU Tel: 01425 626900 Email: admissions@ballardschool.co.uk This page can't load Google Maps correctly.
