The Brompton School offers a challenging and inclusive academically
focused curriculum. The School’s program is based on the belief that a
solid foundation in basic skills and content knowledge is the cornerstone
of academic success, that reading is the key to educational achievement,
that education should be a sequential process which builds upon previous
knowledge and that structured learning experiences and development of
study skills are essential.
The Brompton School maintains small class sizes, a challenging
program, high expectations for student success and a high degree of
parental involvement. It is the school’s philosophy that success earned
through hard work will develop self-worth, confidence, and ensure future
achievement; the success children achieve through their own efforts
cultivates a desire to achieve greater success.
