About Gordano School

Gordano School is a happy school that offers a tremendous range of opportunities, both within the classroom and beyond. We expect a great deal of our children – that they are honest, tolerant and industrious. We expect that they will take on responsibility for their own learning and that they will become good citizens, both in a local and a global context.

"Happy and supported child"

Our child has settled in beautifully at Gordano School and we're so pleased with the care and support they're receiving. The pastoral system is excellent and my child feels part of a community. We're impressed with the range of extracurricular activities on offer and the staff's enthusiasm for learning is contagious!

"Mixed feelings about our experience"

We've had a mixed experience at Gordano School. On the one hand, the facilities are excellent and our child has enjoyed the sports facilities. However, we've found the communication from the school to be inconsistent and at times, unclear. My child has also struggled with the workload, which has been a source of stress. We hope the school will address these issues for future students.

"Gordano School exceeds our expectations!"

Our child has thrived at Gordano School and we can't thank the staff enough for their dedication and support. The facilities are superb and the values of the school align perfectly with our own. My child has joined the Duke of Edinburgh Award and is loving every minute of it. We've noticed a significant improvement in their confidence and academic performance. Highly recommend!
