Norwich School is a co-educational, independent day school for pupils aged four to eighteen. Set in the Cathedral Close, Norwich School is a traditional, yet lively place where boys and girls enjoy a rounded and stimulating education. The school is characterised by strong, warm relationships and a profound appreciation of scholarship.
Norwich School is divided into two sections: the Lower School and the Senior School. The Lower School is the base for our 4-11 year old pupils (Reception- Year 6), while the Senior School caters for the 11-18 age range (Years 7-13).
Norwich School achieves exceptional results but we believe that an education for life is about more than statistics. Here we enjoy local character, beautiful surroundings and a remarkable history. Staff and pupils together create a supportive atmosphere and boys and girls benefit from specialised facilities and a broad curriculum.
At Diss High we are committed to creating a nurturing and inspiring learning environment that empowers students to excel academically, grow personally, and contribute positively to society. Our motto is “work hard, be kind” and these are the two qualities that we emphasize to our students above all else. We have dedicated team of staff who work tirelessly to guide and support students on their educational journey, ensuring they develop not only knowledge and skills but these core values of dedication to their studies and empathy for others.
We believe in the importance of a holistic education that goes beyond textbooks and classrooms. Our school provides a wide range of extracurricular activities, clubs, and events that cater to diverse interests, allowing students to discover and develop their talents outside of their timetabled lessons.
The staff and governors at Diss High are working hard to take the school forward with the achievement and well-being of our students at the heart of everything we do.
