Windermere Prep Awarded for Social Impact Leadership

Windermere Prep has received the prestigious NAE Bronze Social Impact Distinction award
Honoring the character, values, and global vision that define our Laker community

We are proud to share that Windermere Preparatory School has been awarded the Nord Anglia Education Social Impact Bronze Certificate, a distinction recognizing schools that integrate the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) into everyday learning and community life.

This recognition places Windermere Prep among a select and exclusive group of Nord Anglia schools worldwide that are leading the way in socially conscious education. For our Lakers, this is more than an award. It’s a reflection of who we are as a community.

A Celebration of Who We Are

At Windermere Prep, our mission is to engage and inspire our learners to discover their passions and build the best versions of themselves for the global community. This distinction affirms that the work we do every day both inside and outside of the classroom is aligned with that mission.

As our Global Partnership Lead, Kelly Freundt, shared, “This recognition is particularly meaningful for us because the initiatives highlighted in the certification have long been part of who we are at WPS. The application process served not as a starting point, but as a validation and formal acknowledgement of the outstanding work our Laker community engages in every day.”

From student-led service initiatives and sustainability projects to curriculum connections that empower students to tackle global challenges, Windermere Prep has long fostered an environment where character, leadership, and empathy grow alongside academic excellence. This commitment echoes the values at the heart of our school: Virtus, Veritas, and Unitas, which represent stewardship and respect, a love for knowledge, and unity as one Laker community.

Why It Matters

Earning this distinction reinforces our vision for students to become critical thinkers, problem solvers, and leaders grounded in character. It highlights the ways in which Lakers are actively engaging with issues such as climate action, inequality, and quality education to build the knowledge and compassion needed to make a difference locally and globally.

Looking Ahead

Receiving the Bronze Certificate is just the beginning. We are excited to continue strengthening our impact initiatives as we set our sights on achieving the Silver Social Impact Certificate in the near future.

At Windermere Prep, we are committed to ensuring that every student not only succeeds academically, but also feels empowered to be a changemaker. This recognition celebrates our journey so far and inspires us to keep pushing forward.
