From the Heston Community School
I consider it an honour to be responsible for the education of the students at Heston Community School, and I like the challenge of giving them the best all-around education in order to prepare them for successful adult lives. With pupils from a diversity of backgrounds and heritages, Heston is and will continue to be a school with a strong sense of community. They thrive in our exceptional learning environment, growing in mutual respect and understanding, ensuring they are well-prepared for the future. I can say with great pride that visitors to the school frequently remark on how welcoming everyone is, how peaceful the environment is, and how actively the pupils engage in their studies. The traditional principles of diligence, fortitude, and perfect conduct, which are helpful in developing strong working habits, serve as the foundation for the academic achievement of our pupils. Teachers with extensive expertise who have a track record of achieving good test results and provide a pastoral system that leaves no kid behind support the excellent attitudes of our pupils. Heston is frequently ranked as one of the best value-added institutions in the nation thanks to the advancements that our students make. Even while we are quite proud of our high achievers, we are especially pleased that ALL of our students graduate with solid credentials that will help them establish successful futures. Additionally, we want to help our kids acquire the traits and abilities they'll need to succeed in life after school, contribute meaningfully to their community, and become confident individuals who take full advantage of the possibilities presented to them. I would strongly encourage any parent who wants to enrol their child at Heston to visit the school and see the welcoming atmosphere that fosters a love of learning in all of our students.
