SECONDARY CURRICULUM

In Key Stage 3, students are taught National Curriculum subjects and study the Spanish language and humanities. They also choose to study either French or German in Year 7. In Key Stage 4, we prepare them for the IGCSE examinations in a wide range of subjects, with options including business studies, art and design, computer studies, physical education, history and geography. There is also a personal, health and social education programme throughout the secondary school.

During the final two years (Sixth Form), students take Advanced Level courses in their chosen subjects. Students are advised on an individual basis by the teachers and tutors in order to provide them with an appropriate curriculum.

In the Sixth Form, we help our students to take responsibility for their own learning, to take a disciplined approach to their work, and to make a contribution to the community. We provide a clear framework within which they can develop both as students and individuals.

Throughout the secondary school and the Sixth Form, there are clear codes of conduct based on respect for fellow pupils, staff, property and the environment. We aim to foster tolerance, respect and understanding as a matter of priority.
