Our Aims & Ethos
Brilliant Public School is a friendly, lively and unpretentious school for boys and girls.
The School is a community where success is based upon achievement rather than the pursuit of narrowly defined targets.
We welcome academically-minded pupils from both maintained and independent schools, irrespective of ethnic group and background, and of their religious or non-religious beliefs.
We encourage everybody to develop their full academic potential and to develop skills for life through the wide range of cultural, spiritual and sporting opportunities on offer.
We believe that education is not only about acquiring knowledge and skills but about developing a spirit of intellectual enquiry in a caring, stimulating and enjoyable environment.
We aspire to enable our students not only to make sense of the world but also to want to go out and improve it.
