At Durham School we are committed to giving every pupil Confidence for Life. Pupils thrive at School and beyond because of the three strong pillars we provide: Academic Challenge, which creates a lifelong appetite for learning; Pastoral Care, which provides emotional, moral and spiritual strength; and Co-curricular Opportunities.

A thread of core values, known by the acronym MARK, is stitched through our heritage; Moral Integrity, Ambition, Responsibility and Kindness continue to underpin every aspect of School life. These values help shape our pupilsโ€™ lives so they can positively impact the lives of others.

The staff at Durham School know the pupils they teach very well; that is one of the significant strengths of the school. This, coupled with a sense of history, bond of community, friendships and becoming part of the โ€˜Old Dunelmiansโ€™ (a worldwide network of success) when you leave – all add up to the mark of a great education.
