borden grammar school
Sittingbourne
As you enter our school you will be forgiven for failing to notice our school
motto written on the entrance hall carpet. Whilst dating back to before the
second world war it remains as valid as it has ever been. ‘Nitere porro’ means
‘to strive forward’ and is both a description and a goal. We are a small and
personal community school committed to supporting and inspiring our young people
to achieve their potential in a modern world. This means creating successful
young people who understand that their future matters and so always try their
best. However, the goal is not just a personal one. We genuinely want all our
students to leave us with a fully developed ‘moral compass’ able to navigate the
world and driven to make it a better place.
