Our broad, balanced and brave curriculum ensures every child leaves us with the education they need to flourish in the modern world. Whether it’s coding, geology, engineering or algebra that gets your child going, we’ll provide the support and inspiration they need to shine brightly.
Curriculum
Our curriculum is broad and balanced, providing the skills and knowledge needed for children to flourish beyond our gates. The timetable provides ample time for children to get to grips with the core subjects, possibly in the lead up to entrance assessments at top senior schools, but also provides room to explore the humanities, languages, the arts and technology. In short, breadth is best!
Homework
We believe in homework. Not only does it encourage independent thinking, it acts as a positive link between school and home. We set approximately five hours a week, which gives children plenty of time to play sports, pursue hobbies and spend time with family and friends. A homework timetable is published in the planner at the start of each term, so families know what to expect.
Personalised & Digital Learning
Our small classes in the seniors (typically less than 15 students per class) enable pupils’ individual needs to be met through extension work that challenges the brightest students. In addition, our digital platforms (every student is given their own iPad to use daily as part of their teaching and learning) enable resources to be personalised for each student. We use AI learning tools that monitor each student’s progress in key areas, strengthening students’ understanding of maths, spelling, reasoning and GCSE revision.
