Carefully planned play forms an important part of children’s development and learning.

The International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) programme, in Years 10-11 (Key Stage 4), features core subjects complemented by an even broader list of options.

Focus on critical skills such as reasoning, analysis, research and leadership increases, and our small class sizes and embedded pastoral care foster a truly supportive and personalised environment that is essential during these important years.

A-Level

This 2-year programme is open to students aged 16 and above, of all nationalities and educational backgrounds. A solid performance in three A-Levels represents a passport to entry into universities worldwide.

For students with clearly identified areas of strength or interest, specialising in fewer subjects is a better fit than programmes with numerous compulsory subjects, such as the International Baccalaureate.
