Does your school have a strong tradition of excellence? You might want to choose a Latin motto or use words like ‘traditional’ or ‘heritage’ in your slogan. You could also use the date the school was established to highlight your longevity and prestige.
The Future:
You could talk about how your school is modern and looking towards the future. Use terms like ‘21st Century’, ‘Future’, ‘Progressive Education’, ‘Moving Forward’ and ‘Agile’ to highlight your school’s modern credentials.
Excellence:
Many schools use the term ‘excellence’ to highlight the school’s ambitions to help everyone achieve their best.
Diversity:

If your school has a religious perspective, consider using quotes from your religious texts or using words like ‘Christ’, ‘Faith’ and ‘Truth’ in your slogan.
Educational Philosophy:
If your school follows an educational philosophy like Montessori, Steiner, Froebel, Forest Schools or Reggio Emilia, consider using a quote from the founder of the philosophy.
