Dear parents, carers, and students,
I am delighted to welcome you to The Light Christian School, where our commitment to excellence in education and the spiritual and emotional well-being of every student is our top priority. As the Principal, it is my privilege to lead a school community that is dedicated to equipping young people with faith, love, and excellence through a supportive, challenging, and engaging environment for all.
At The Light Christian School, we believe in an academically rigorous education where every child is exposed to the best that has been written and thought throughout history. As a Classical Christian School, we study great literature, art and history, mastery in maths, the study of Latin to understanding connections in modern language and challenge all students to progress beyond national benchmarks for their age group. We are proud to offer a broad and balanced curriculum that encourages curiosity, creativity, and critical thinking. This will be delivered by a dedicated team of teachers and staff who will work tirelessly to ensure that each student is given the opportunity to discover and develop their unique talents and abilities.
Our Christian ethos and values, as a Christ-centred independent school, permeate throughout all we do. All governors, leaders and teachers are practicing Christians who believe in our vision and curriculum’s intent of equipping young people with the character, knowledge, and skills to live successful lives. As we see the pursuit of knowledge to include the pursuit of virtue and all that is good, true, and beautiful, we teach with a biblical worldview.
We are a community that values respect, kindness, and perseverance. Our goal is to prepare our students to be confident, compassionate, and responsible individuals who are ready to meet the challenges of an ever-changing world. We believe that every child has the potential to succeed, and we are committed to providing the support and encouragement they need to reach their goals.
Whether you are a prospective parent or carer and member of local community, I encourage you to become involved in our vibrant school community. Together, we can make The Light Christian School a place where every student feels valued and inspired to achieve their best.
Thank you for visiting our website and considering entrusting us with your child’s education. I look forward to a successful and rewarding relationship ahead.
Warm regards,
Afolabi Joseph – BA, MA, NPQH, CEA
Principal, The Light Christian School
