ABOUT US

WHO ARE CARPE DIEM EDUCATION?

 Our Philosophy
                                              "Habet consilium Dei vobis"
(God has a plan for you)
"For I Know the plans I have for you" declares the Lord,  "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"  Jeremiah 29:11 

Whilst we welcome students from all faith and non faith groups and cherish the harmonious diversity this brings to the learning environment, our founding principles are embedded in our Christian values of love, respect and the belief that each person has a unique purpose and plan for their life. 
 
We hold the firm view that children are not just shaped by what they are taught, but also by what they are 'not' taught,  their environment and perception of themselves and the world around them. 

We therefore strive to offer the very best learning experience which supports the development of 'rounded', confident and academically astute students. 

Helping to develop and shape the future generation, is a task we do not take lightly, so we never settle for second best and always have your child's interest as our top priority. This is who we are and we are proud of it. 

Our Passion for Latin 

Carpe Diem is Latin for 'Seize the Day'.

Studies have shown that children who learn a second language have better cognitive skills, which includes listening skills, thinking more abstractly and developing better pronunciation in later life as a result of how the mind processes learning a new language. Having a second language also has social benefits as well as career advantages.

We use Latin phrases frequently at Carpe Diem. It is a language that we strongly believe should be kept alive, as it is embedded into the fabric of many of today's modern languages.

With 50 percent of English deriving from Latin and over 80 percent of English polysyllabic words having a Latin origin, it is inherent in the English language and therefore remains relevant in many ways.

This benefit extends to other languages, as 90 percent of the five ‘romance’ languages; French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian emanates from Latin.

We do not offer Latin as a taught subject, but given its historical, classical and liturgical importance, we hope our students will enjoy being exposed to it whilst learning at our centers.

“I enjoy school, but having extra tuition lessons has really helped to understand subjects more..as I have more time to understand what I'm being taught and to ask questions.”
Cyan, Age 13
“My children have benefited from the method and approach used by Carpe Diem. It's more than just tuition classes, they really care about students overall well being and understand how external factors affect learning and development. I’ll definitely choose them again and highly recommend their services.”
Louise Keane, Dagenham
