In June 2008 we adopted ‘Semper Magis’ as our new school motto. Translated as “Always More’ this motto invites all Donhead boys to always give of their very best and to always ask of themselves: ‘What more can I do? What more can I give’. This term, in line with our new school motto, we have introduced the ‘Semper Magis Award’. This award is given for exceptional effort or achievement in any area of school life.

ISI Inspection Comment on Recognition of Achievement

The school has a clear, well-defined system of rewards and sanctions, which is loaded very much on the side of positive appreciation and contributes substantially both to the pupils’ pride in their work and to the high standards of behaviour observed in all parts of the school.
