EDUCATION IN ASSOCIATION WITH Building on Excellence New Headmaster, Guy Sanderson, starts at Eltham College Guy Sanderson joins Eltham College this September and is thrilled to become part of such a flourishing community. Set in over 60 acres of playing fields, Eltham College is an independent day school for boys from the age of 7 to 18, with a co-educational Sixth Form. Academic excellence, combined with strong individual pastoral care and a vibrant extra-curricular programme, are all on offer here to allow exceptional personal development. Guy enthuses about the school: “There is nothing like a really broad extra-curricular programme for teaching resilience, building character and teamwork. At Eltham College, this complements the outstanding academic programme that really stretches each student – so that we bring out the best in everyone. It is genuinely rare to find a school where that all happens and Eltham College is different in that sense. That’s because of the size; it’s a mediumsized school, so we know all of the boys and all of the girls in the Sixth Form, and there is a real strong sense of individual care.” Guy Sanderson To find out more about Eltham College and to meet Guy Sanderson, please visit its open morning on Saturday 20th September 2014, 10am-12.30pm. The recent Independent Schools Inspection (ISI) report reviewed these areas as 'Excellent' and Guy is looking forward to talking to parents and pupils about his plans to further strengthen the sporting, academic and culture achievements of the school, while ensuring that no pupil will ever be lost in the crowd.
