We aim to provide a challenging and stimulating education for all students to help them achieve their full potential. In addition to the curriculum subjects studied and the wide range of extracurricular activities available at lunch times and after school, teachers will identify additional opportunities relevant to their subject beyond the classroom. In addition there are reputable external providers of enrichment activities; day long master classes, residential weekends and summer schools that students may want to consider.
