Focus on Academics:
- Encouraging Academic Excellence
We have a reputation for encouraging academic excellence through teachers who are passionate about their subjects. Class sizes are kept to a maximum of 24: small enough for one-to-one support and large enough for the cut and thrust of lively debate. We practise the best of traditional methods whilst seeking to innovate and adapt to changing times and the individual learning needs of our pupils.
- Develop Individual Talents
From years 7-9, the curriculum is notable for its breadth. We want our boys and girls to discover and develop individual talents in order to make appropriate choices for GCSE. In addition to GCSEs, students take the International GCSE study in Mathematics and Sciences, recognised as a rigorous and effective preparation for A level.
- Impressive Exam Results
Our sixth formers take AS and A levels with many choosing to undertake the Extended Project, highly valued by universities. Our impressive exam results pay testimony to our approach.
