GOVERNANCE

Kellett is unusual in its organisation and the degree of parental involvement. Kellett School is operated by Kellett School Association Limited, a not-forprofit company limited by guarantee, through a board of elected parent Governors and Ex-officio members.

All Kellett parents automatically become members of the Association.

“Kellett is an exceptional school, achieving outstanding academic results, but to most Kellett parents, including myself, it is far more than that. It is a School where wellbeing comes first, always. Indeed, it is this that I believe enables the students to reach the exceptional heights they do year after year.

Beyond that, the School places huge importance on learning, developing skills and enjoying learning beyond traditional academics. Sport, Expressive Arts and Innovation, are huge strengths of the school, and as with academics, excellence is expected, but it is not the primary goal. The goal is participation, learning new skills together and having fun.

Wellbeing and these areas of strength are deliberately chosen, and invested in, to achieve the school’s aim of engendering a love of learning and confidence for life. A love of learning so students can adapt and flex as the world around them changes, and a self-confidence to handle challenges that both they and the communities they inhabit will inevitably face.

Kellett, thanks to exceptional staff and a consistently committed parent body, always goes beyond, and I know Kellett students will go beyond their time at the school to flourish and contribute to the world that awaits them.”

Silvia Pezzini Chair of the Board of Governors
