Bethany School, Sheffield, England is a small, friendly school based upon Christian and family principles. We actively promote involvement of parents with teachers in every aspect of school life. Together we continue to develop a distinctive biblical curriculum for our children.

Birkdale is a day school for boys aged 4-11 in the Preparatory School and 11-18 in the Senior School, with a coeducational Sixth Form. We are on two sites in leafy west Sheffield.

The Birkdale ethos is based on firm Christian values. These inform every area of school life. Pupils respect each other and have good relationships with their teachers. We endeavour to help pupils acquire a value system which will allow them to live full and fruitful lives.

Standards of teaching and learning are high. Good teachers inspire pupils to enjoy learning and school life generally. Examination results are very good, but exam grades are not all that matters. We want our pupils to be balanced in what they learn and balanced as individuals.

Brantwood is friendly, welcoming school with a family atmosphere, located in the attractive suburb of Nether Edge, conveniently close to the city centre. We expect high standards of behaviour and provide a calm learning environment for the girls in our care. We value individual achievement and have good pastoral care systems to support our young people. Girls are encouraged to be confident and independent, to enjoy their learning experience and develop both academic and personal skills.

A recent inspection report commented on the standard of pastoral care, which was found to be ‘very good’.

At Handsworth Christian School we believe that every pupil is unique and has their own specific educational needs. We rarely have more than 16 pupils in a class and the school has a strong community atmosphere where everybody knows everyone else. Here at Handsworth Christian School, every child is treated as an individual - not a statistic.

We usually have around 140 pupils at the school, aged between 4 and 16. In this small environment, our excellent team of staff can give a great deal of individual attention and notice very quickly when a pupil is not working to their full potential. That is the basis of our reputation for academic excellence, but as a Christian school we also have a responsibility to help each child develop emotionally and spiritually.

Hill House School is an independent day school for girls and boys aged from 3 to 16, with small classes and fewer than 500 pupils.

We achieve the top GCSE results in the district, and sports achievements at national levels, with many distinctions in other areas.

The school, a charitable trust, is open from Monday to Friday and enjoys substantial buildings and grounds.

We pride ourselves in being able to bring out the potential in all our children, and the move to our new site, the former RAF Finningley Officers' Mess will allow us to develop into the best school in Yorkshire.

I hope very much to be able to welcome you to our school so that you can appreciate at first hand its remarkable family atmosphere.

Mount St Mary's College is an 11- 18, co-educational, boarding and day school, under the trusteeship of the Society of Jesus but welcoming children of all denominations. The College is set in beautiful surroundings on the Nottinghamshire, South Yorkshire and Derbyshire borders.

Mylnhurst provides an education based on high standards and Christian values, which attracts families who share our commitment to working in partnership.

We are one of the North's leading independent preparatory schools, accepting boys and girls from the age of two, right through to eleven. Our pre-school, pre-prep and prep departments can provide the very best start to your child's education.

We encourage our children to explore their potential and we have the subject and age specialists to enable them to achieve it. Our academic standards are very high, but our children also excel at music, drama and sports.

We aim to develop each girl academically and personally through careful teaching in a happy, civilised and well-equipped environment. If you read our latest inspection report (available on the ISI website), you will see that we are judged to be very successful in achieving our aims.

If you can come and see for yourself, you will be more than welcome. I am always happy to show parents around so do make an appointment and visit us soon.
