WHY A BOYS’ SCHOOL?

CORDIES CHARACTER

Cordwalles aims to be a boy’s best foundation for life, building character through courage. We believe that a boys-only environment best serves our boys’ educational, sporting and cultural needs and ensures that they are able to achieve personal excellence.

Explore His Full Potential

We provide our boys with opportunities to explore different roles and pursuits in a nurturing environment. Boys who may not have ‘stepped up’ in the presence of girls may feel freer to explore their strengths and interests without the social pressures of a coed environment.

We Understand Boys

We acknowledge that boys tend to be academically, socially and emotionally behind girls of the same age, and we understand that boys learn differently and at different paces than girls. In a boys-only environment, we celebrate boys for who they are, allowing them to develop a positive self-image and build their self-esteem.

Focused Development

Educating boys in a boys’ only school minimises many distracting factors and social pressures. Our focus remains on the boys and their particular wellbeing and personal excellence. Students in an all-boys school can explore the full range of their personalities and potential. They discover they have many roles to play; as a scholar, sportsman, artist, musician and friend.

Building Brotherhood

A school for boys fosters brotherhood and lifelong friendships. When looking back on their Cordwalles careers, our Old Boys reflect fondly on the bonds they formed with their peers. The friendships formed at an all-boys school are among the most important benefits our boys carry with them into the rest of their lives.
