The Canford Impact

Canford offers the breadth of opportunity to enable every individual pupil to make the most of his or her talents and develop the skills and qualities to move on beyond school to rich and fulfilling lives.   

We are ambitious for our pupils.  We want the education we offer to have a real and lasting impact on their lives, not only in terms of academic outcomes as the tickets to the next stage but also in their personal development embodying the school's core values of Purposeful Engagement, Humble Ambition, Gracious Leadership and Courageous Attitude.  Canfordians are known as decent, honest and capable young people, who aim high and want to make a positive difference not only to their own lives, but also to the lives of others.
