School of Character Award

At George Salter, being ambitious for every child and defying disadvantage are at the heart of our mission statement. To be successful and to change the world for the better we know that our young people will need more than GCSE grades. They will need to be resilient, tolerant, empathetic and so much more.  

Our Character for Life journey gives a real sense of cohesion to these values. This wider curriculum offer, including such things as visits, guest lectures, assemblies, inter house competitions, careers guidance and leadership development, means that we can really develop truly active global citizens who are empowered to make the right choices. We understand that we are not just preparing young people for tests but for the test of life.  

I understand that only 50 academies have achieved this award and I am beyond delighted that we have received this recognition. The world is a better place because GSA children of character are in it.

Mr Price,

Principal.
