What makes King Solomon Special? Innovative international business focus The school creates advantages for students through its international outlook. We believe that in the single market global economy, internationally recognised qualifications will become more relevant and useful. We follow the National Curriculum in our Primary and Secondary School, but tailor the curriculum to embrace the highly regarded International Baccalaureate (IB) profile, so that students in our Sixth Form, can study and achieve the IB Diploma and IB Career Related Certificate programmes. The IB Diploma is a prestigious qualification favoured by many overseas international schools and a growing number of leading schools in the UK. It is academically demanding while addressing non-academic skills and character development. It is a sought after qualification on the international stage. We specialise in international business and enterprise and work closely with international companies to equip our students, developing skills aligned to ever changing business needs of the global economy. By offering a globally respected curriculum we provide an advantage for our pupils in the international market. Open to all We are a non fee-paying, non-selective, co-educational school, which means our school is free to attend, open to boys and girls, and no qualifying entry exams. As an all-through school, we are able to provide a continuity and progression of curriculum for students from 4 years old right through to completing their education in Sixth Form. High attainment expectations We provide a secure and supportive learning environment, tailored to the needs of individual students, working in partnership with parents. We have high expectations of our students meeting, ambitious learning targets and achieving strong personal results. Strong discipline Student self-discipline and respect for others is paramount. The Primary phase has a value based approach to student conduct and behaviour, congruent with the Nine Testament Biblical character development "Fruit of the Spirit". There is a strict dress code with a clear school uniform policy which all students are expected to follow throughout the school. A non-denominational Christian school We are a Christian school, open to all Christian denominations, faiths and cultures. Rooted in the Christian tradition, the School provides an education that builds character and enables students to develop toward being complete spiritual, moral, social and emotional human beings. We cultivate the "Nine Virtues" of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control which all contribute to a productive, caring, learning environment. Primary students are expected to attend to attend Collective Worship daily, consisting of song, prayer and story for reflection. Celebration services are held at a local church according to the Christian calender. Greater opportunities for learning extended school day To provide a comprehensive all-round education, the school operates a 42 week school year (four weeks longer than normal). The Primary School day runs from 8.45 to 15.30, with before and after school club provision. The extended school year provides opportunities for extra curriculum activities and enrichment opportunities. We operate a firm and fair approach to behaviour management. Pastoral care and character development We aim to provide the highest possible level of care, support and learning so that every pupil achieves the very best they can. Primary School pupils will be taught in classes up to a maximum of 30. Their class teacher will be responsible for their academic and pastoral care. 6 Each child is also assigned to one of four school Houses, linked also to pastoral care and inter-house competition. Many of the school’s extra-curricular activities are conducted through school Houses, encouraging a sense of belonging. King Solomon International Business School
