Saint Jérôme C E Bilingual school opened in Harrow in September 2016. We believe that we offer a unique educational experience to our children. We are a Christian School that welcomes all people and seeks to share the love of God with our community in words and actions. We believe that teaching is a vocation and a ministry as we reach out to serve the children and families of central Harrow. We are also a bilingual school that is passionate about languages and we teach children in both English and French. We believe that this gives our children, the majority of whom already speak another language at home, a significant linguistic and cultural advantage. The ability to speak another language and to communicate with others opens doors and possibilities. Our dream for our children is that they will love both the English and French languages and that they will maintain other languages that they may speak at home and go on to learn many other ones.
