What sets your school<br />
apart from others in<br />
the city?<br />
As an International<br />
Baccalaureate school,<br />
we offer all four<br />
baccalaureate programmes. We boast<br />
excellent results with 100% pass rate<br />
during three out of the last four years,<br />
and we have achieved outstanding BTec<br />
results. We offer a flexible curriculum<br />
based on our students’ interests, an<br />
extensive after-school programme<br />
and we provide a variety of trips, from<br />
adventure camps to overseas adventures.<br />
We have a strong community. Our<br />
staff is invested in its students’ wellbeing<br />
and success. We also have an involved<br />
parent and friends’ association.<br />
Tell us about your team…<br />
We believe that each student should be<br />
able to reach his or her full potential in<br />
a caring and safe learning environment<br />
where teachers know each individual<br />
child and are therefore able to cater to<br />
his or her learning needs and wellbeing.<br />
Is there anything else parents should<br />
know about?<br />
We have partnerships with the wider<br />
community and the role of parents as<br />
supporters of the school is highly valued.<br />
Therefore, parents are often invited to<br />
attend information sessions on a myriad<br />
of topics, ranging from the curriculum<br />
to a healthy lifestyle. What’s more,<br />
for students and their parents, school<br />
leaders are easily approachable and are<br />
visible in the school.<br />
What do your key facilities include?<br />
Our excellent sports amenities, which<br />
include a large sports field, covered<br />
swimming pool and tennis courts has<br />
aided several teams entering into local<br />
leagues. Alongside our wide choice of<br />
extra curriculum activities, we also have<br />
additional options that are offered by<br />
external companies.<br />
We have a two-storey library with<br />
auditorium, while our healthy and<br />
nutritional school food programme<br />
is provided by food and beverage<br />
experts, Slices.<br />
