Academic Excellence

Our faith calls us to do all we undertake, wholeheartedly and with all our might, as an act of worship to God.  Our desire is to see God at work in our school, as He draws our students’ hearts to love Christ and shapes their minds to be active, vigorous, and informed by biblical truth.  At Wilberforce we place a high value on excellence and effort, and we give special emphasis to the following four learning components:

Teachers

We seek to attract and train gifted teachers and then hold them accountable to the highest standards of teaching and character.

Students

We inculcate our students with exceptional habits of study.  This includes challenging students to use and develop their God-given gifts to their highest potential to the glory of God alone and in humble service to others.

Curricula and teaching materials

Using classic works and more recent materials, we will put the best teaching tools in the hands of our teachers.

Academic pace

Offering a curriculum which is generally at least one grade level ahead, we provide a challenging pace for most students.
