An accepting, creative and aspirational place of learning where difference is celebrated. It is actually very hard to find the words to express how grateful our family is to have found Canbury.
The way our daughter has developed from Year 7, to today (going back after summer holidays to the top of the school), Year 13, is in no small part down to the continuous effort, commitment, patience, belief and care of every single staff member at Canbury.
All the teaching staff and the support staff are a really special bunch of human beings; they make the place feel like one big family and go above and beyond to bring out the best in each student.
