- Forres Sandle Manor School (FSM) is an independent preparatory day and boarding school for boys and girls aged 3 to 13, situated in the small town of Fordingbridge, Hampshire. Set in beautiful grounds on the edge of the New Forest, our School’s location was recorded as far back as the Doomsday Book. Today, we provide a holistic, rounded education that prepares children for the next stage of their education and adult life. “At Forres Sandle Manor School, we strongly believe that happy children succeed. This ethos underpins everything we do and creates a community of children who are confident, eager to learn, brave enough to take risks, and caring for each other. At a time when young people’s peace of mind is being eroded by a range of external pressures, we aim to create an environment where children can just be children, with the freedom to find and explore their passions. Our innovative new Saturday morning enrichment activities, focused on children’s creative and personal development, are a great example of this. As a non-selective school, we believe that the richness of our community is its variety, and we support all children, wherever they sit academically, to achieve their potential. We’re proud of our high flyers and scholars who are nurtured and stretched through our Able Child Programme, but we’re also bursting with pride for the children who overcome challenges to achieve their goals, and our excellent Learning Centre provides tailored support for children who learn differently. Despite being a school with a predominant focus on the pastoral – or perhaps because of it – our pupils excel academically. Last year, 100% of our leavers won places at their first-choice senior schools. We aim to create an atmosphere where to excel is not just acceptable, it’s cool! Our Able Child program identifies the ablest children in each subject area, every year, using class performance and test scores, and ensures that they are given extension activities that will challenge and stimulate them. Besides, we offer targeted acceleration through our scholarship and 11plus workshops. We also recognize that not everyone learns at the same pace or in the same way. Experienced staff in our Learning Centre provide individual support to help children who are struggling with literacy or numeracy as well as helping them in the classroom so that they can take part in a full and rich curriculum. We see learning differences as temporary stumbling blocks rather than barriers, and we encourage all our children to aim high. We see education as a partnership between school and home, and keep parents regularly informed about their child’s progress through termly and half-termly reports, year group reviews, and twice-yearly parent-teacher meetings, as well as informal feedback.
