Work


Everything that happens in school from saying “Good morning” to finishing homework is part of the curriculum.

 

The experience of learning

School is more than just subjects. Your child will learn how to learn and then how to become an independent learner. So playtime is about how to get on and work with others, lunchtime is about learning to enjoy food in company and sport is about learning to work with others and be part of a team.

 

Encouraging new talents

The range of subjects taught here is deliberately kept broad to include as wide a range of skills and ideas as possible. Your son or daughter will be taught by subject specialist teachers from the age of seven.

This means the children are constantly on the move, which is both stimulating and challenging for their organisation
