Welcome to SION. I’m Steven Jeffery, Headteacher, and it gives me great pleasure to introduce you to our vibrant and nurturing school community in the heart of Worthing.
At SION, we believe that education is about far more than academic success. It’s about unlocking the full potential of every child, emotionally, intellectually, and spiritually.
As part of a global network of 22 Sion schools, we offer our students a truly international perspective. Our values, respect, compassion, and curiosity are not just words on a wall. They are lived out daily by our staff and students alike
We are proud of our school culture. It’s one where every child is seen, heard, and valued. When children feel known and nurtured, they thrive. They become more confident, more curious, and more capable of achieving extraordinary things.
Our students don’t just attend school, they belong here. And that sense of belonging fuels their success.
From our youngest learners in Nursery to our Sixth Form students in the VISION Centre, we focus on the whole child. We ask ourselves daily:
“What are the affinities of this soul? How can I truly connect and unlock their potential?”
This mindset drives our approach to teaching, learning, and pastoral care.
Our students achieve impressive academic results, but more importantly, they develop a love of learning. They are encouraged to think critically, ask questions, and bring original thought to every subject.
We challenge them to go deeper, to engage fully, and to support one another in their journey.
Pastoral care at SION is not a checklist, it’s a commitment. Our students know they can turn to us in times of need. These are sacred moments, and we honour them with compassion and support.
We believe that failure is part of growth, and we walk alongside our students through every success and setback.
Choosing the right school is one of the most important decisions you’ll make. At SION, we take that responsibility seriously. We invite you to visit us, meet our students and staff, and experience the warmth and energy that make our school so special – book a tour today.
We look forward to welcoming you.
Warm regards,
Steven Jeffery
Headteacher.
