From the The River School
The River School is a non-selective, co-educational Christian school in Worcester that has been operating since 1985. Here, teachers, parents, and students collaborate to help students uncover God's plan for their lives. Our basic beliefs focus on developing the best qualities in our kids—not just in terms of academics but also in terms of morals, emotions, social skills, health, and spirituality. We place a lot of value on the core Christian principles since they are essential to how the school functions. Every student should be a self-assured, well-rounded citizen with the best moral characteristics, abilities, discipline, and academic knowledge required to realise their potential and gifts. From our exceptional (BSI Inspection) Nursery forward, your kid can benefit from an education from two to sixteen years old. Then, until they finish their GCSEs, they can move seamlessly between the elementary and secondary phases. Classes are purposefully kept small (under 20). Through the curriculum and extracurricular activities like sports, drama, and music, children have a lot of chances to grow in their abilities and self-assurance. Our amazing "Forest" school helps the kids develop their independence and self-worth. Our school is a place where your kid can find their worth, develop their character, advance academically, and achieve excellence. It is also a place of adventure and exploration, new challenges, and exciting chances. Call us at (01905) 457047 to set up a meeting; we'd be happy to introduce ourselves, show you around our lovely location, and explain more about our mission.
