Curriculum

We offer a rich and diverse curriculum. Our aim is to provide a broad education covering the full range of subjects in the lower school, gradually bringing in choice as students grow older and find areas in which they wish to specialise.

In Year 7, students are largely taught in their mixed ability form groups, with setting from October in Mathematics.

From Year 7 onwards, setting by ability is introduced in a greater range of subjects. By the end of Year 9 all students will have completed their first GCSE (OCR National) in ICT.

At GCSE, traditional academic subjects sit alongside innovative vocational subjects such as Hospitality and Catering, Performing Arts, Digital Applications and Travel & Tourism. Students complete several GCSEs by the end of Year 10. This approach gives maximum oppotunity for support and challenge as part of a personalised curriculum. Both pathways can be mixed and are available to all students.

Our choice of A-Levels in the Sixth Form is extensive.
