Mission and pillars
Through the academic breadth and depth of the International Baccalaureate programmes, Dwight London nurtures confident, compassionate young people who influence the future.
Our students thrive in a curriculum rooted in our three educational pillars:
Personalised learning: an education just for the student
Dwight School London prides itself on really getting to know each of our students and their families. We shape students' education around them: how they best learn, where their skills lie, what sparks their interest, and where we can best help them.
Community: earn your place in the wider world
Our students are best placed to make a positive difference: to their school, to their neighbours and the world beyond. For this, they need more than academic learning. We develop the aptitudes our students will need, through local and global projects, as well as joint ventures with the world-wide family of Dwight schools.
Global vision: for the future global citizen
With students representing the UK and more than 50 other nations, Dwight London is a culturally and socially rich and diverse school. We are committed to developing confident, compassionate, intellectually mature young people who will be a force for good across the world.
Our vision is to produce students who are inquiring, knowledgeable and caring, while fostering their academic growth. Dwight School London prepares students to move on to further education, to be active, and be desirable citizens and learners gaining places at top universities around the world.
