It gives us great pleasure to introduce ourselves as the Head of Tring School and Chief Executive of the Ridgeway Learning Partnership. Img 8865resized It is heartening to lead a school where the vision and Christian values are centred on maximising the potential in every young person. By supporting your child’s individual aspirations and dreams, the wider community also benefits. An education is very powerful and can change lives for the better. There can be no excuse for any of us in this partnership for not doing our utmost to encourage our children’s desire to learn, explore opportunities and seek continuous improvement. The students at Tring School are a credit to their families, the School and the community. They are polite and courteous and demonstrate honesty and trustworthiness. These qualities create young people with outstanding characters who will be ready for their next steps in life. We summarise this ethos into creating Confident Learners (wisdom), Ambitious Individuals (hope) and Responsible Citizens (community). To harness all of this success we have excellent staff that go above and beyond to meet the needs of each child. We have the privilege of nurturing, supporting and developing the skills in young people through lessons, tutor time, assemblies, collective worship, visits and many extra-curricular events. At Tring School we expect great things from your children. We will continue to be unrelenting in the pursuit of the highest standards of academic success, behaviours and contribution to our school. However, we can only do this if the staff and governors have your full and unwavering support. Together we can ensure each child fulfils our motto of ‘Live to Learn and Learn to Live’.

From our inception, we wanted to build an exceptional private equity firm that could assist entrepreneurs build exceptional businesses. To accomplish this, we needed a differentiated business model. Prior to forming Excellere, our core team worked together at another well regarded middle market private equity firm. There we began sharing our mutual admiration and respect for the entrepreneur and our belief that building smaller, high-growth companies into larger industry leaders demanded unique skills and capabilities. We saw that existing private equity business models underserved entrepreneurs and their companies and that there was a profound opportunity for us to fill this void by building a firm that was highly differentiated and special. We launched Excellere in 2006, raising capital from large institutional investors with long-term investment horizons and interest in supporting rapidly growing companies. Almost all of these original investors continue to be our partners today. Over time, we believe that Excellere’s success will be measured by the success of the companies we support and the enduring legacy we create together.

Welcome to our school website. Kingsbury High School is a fantastic community with a commitment to learning and achievement but also a mission to develop youngsters to become successful members of society. I hope you enjoy reading about all the exciting things happening at our school and see our students acting in the ‘Kingsbury Way’. We aim to provide clear relevant information for all, please let us know if there is anything missing or contact us if you want to know more. Kingsbury High School has many strengths and a long history of success. There is a keen understanding of the importance of values and a sense of tradition, encapsulated by the School motto, spectemur agendo. It dates back to the founding of our predecessor school, the Kingsbury County, in the 1920s, and it is Latin for, “let us be judged by our actions”. As Headteacher I seek to lead the school with this at the heart and ask students to respect themselves, others and the environment. Our students gain excellent examination results in both GCSE and across the Sixth Form. In our most recent inspection Ofsted again rated the school as “good”. Equally, the school is very proud of the way it has achieved these outcomes and the rounded education it offers to its students. We recognise our place in the community and are a key part of the partnership, Kingsbury Schools Together with our local primary schools and the Village (special) School. A great school is a combination of different things. We are equally proud of the many opportunities we provide for our students beyond the curriculum and how we develop students as individuals ready for adult life. Our aim is to develop in all of our students the love of learning, intellectual curiosity, skills and qualities of character needed to become successful, happy and engaged members of society. Our key values are: Integrity; Respect; Responsibility; Resilience; and Aspiration. Through these, we aim to combine both academic success and the development of the broader aspects of each student’s character. I hope that whatever the reason you have chosen to look at our website, as a member of the school community, a prospective parent, student or member of staff, or are simply taking an interest from afar, you find what you are looking for.
