Curriculum
We concentrate on 'A' Levels and can therefore offer a wide range of subjects which are studied within small teaching groups.
A Levels allow you to decide to specialise and study subjects in depth. We have a wide curriculum that will allow you to develop your interests and pursue new ones.
Our curriculum is enhanced by numerous opportunities for independent learning through the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) and an extensive extra-curricular programme.
