15 Core Subjects
Students are offered only the 15 core academic subjects favoured by Russell Group Universities – these are taught by highly-qualified subject specialists.
Longer days allow students to participate in a rich and varied co-curricular programme including Combined Cadet Force, Duke of Edinburgh Award, volunteering and the Performing Arts Hub.
Every week, each student participates in a range of sports and societies, everything from boxing and Japanese lessons, to Zumba and photography.
EPQs enable students to develop research, referencing and critical analysis skills. This prepares them well for life at university and beyond.
