Growing and Flourishing
Our vision is for every child to grow and flourish, gaining knowledge, wisdom and skills. Founded by parents who believed an outstanding bilingual education should be open to all, St Jérôme offers every child a rich, ambitious curriculum in English and French.
Our pupils achieve highly, leave us confident in two languages (many gaining the internationally recognised DELF Prim), and grow in character as well as knowledge, ready to put God’s love into action in the world.
We are proud to say that we have achieved our founding aspirations and relentlessly pursue our aims. Our academic attainment scores are consistently above the national averages; many of our children achieve Diplomas of French Language Studies DELF PRIM, organised by the French Ministry of Education and recognised worldwide.
Our Vision & Values
Love, Respect, Hope, Joy, Peace, Justice and Courage. We are an aspirational, multilingual, multicultural education community that empowers everyone: to grow and flourish, to gain in knowledge, wisdom and skills, and to translate the love of God for all people into words and actions.
Our seven Christian values are Love, Respect, Hope, Joy, Peace, Justice and Courage. They shape how we treat one another and take the place of school rules.
Our core values are aligned with our founding ethos: to provide a rigorous and outstanding academic curriculum in a Church of England context and offering unique bilingual provision in a state setting. We are highly ambitious for each and every one of our pupils and are dedicated to the holistic flourishing of each child. “We hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!” (Acts 2:11)
A Message from Our Headteacher
Welcome to Saint Jérôme, the UK’s only Church of England bilingual English–French primary school. I’m Kate Schutte, and I feel privileged to lead such a joyful, unique community.
Our Christian vision is inspired by Pentecost, when people of every nation heard God’s word in their own language. We want every child to grow and flourish, and to translate God’s love into words and actions. Every child belongs here, whatever their needs, background or faith. Our values of love, respect, hope, joy, peace, justice and courage take the place of school rules.
Children learn in English and French, achieve highly, and many leave us confidently bilingual. As a Harrow Music Hub Lead School, every pupil learns an instrument from Year 3, with an orchestra and three choirs to join. We gather daily for worship, celebrate festivals at our parish church, and encourage our pupils to speak up for what’s right.
Come and see it for yourself: I’d be delighted to show you around.
Kate Schutte, Headteacher
