Round Square is an international network of schools, based on the educational concepts of Kurt Hahn, and named after a distinctive building at Gordonstoun.
Between 1962 and 1963 Jocelin Winthrop Young and Roy McComish listed all the schools which they considered to have adopted the educational ideas of Kurt Hahn or had included them at their foundation.
[8] Round Square schools encourage students to take part in a range of community service activities both locally and internationally.
Many projects are run through the school and further opportunities are available via the Round Square Region, Network and Worldwide Organisation.
Round Square schools are characterised by a shared belief in an approach to education built around six themes, our IDEALS, drawn from the theories of the educationalist Kurt Hahn.
