All of the above skills and habits provide Greenford High School students with the necessary thinking skills and habits to be successful life-long learners.

Your son/daughter will gain critical thinking skills and will take part in survival scenarios to save the planet, plan a Summer-fete, deliver presentations, participate in Philosophy for Children sessions and learn how to lead and be part of a successful team.
