The School  has four sections:  Infant (Years 0-2),  Lower Junior (Years 3-4), Upper Junior (Years 5-7) and Senior (Years 8-11).

 

The Infant class is run on conventional lines.  There is an emphasis on phonics in the teaching of reading using a scheme which has been developed by our own teachers.

The Juniors spend about half of their time working with self-instructional curriculum.  The other half of Juniors time is spent working in groups in teacher led lessons.

 

Using self-instructional curriculum allows pupils to work at their own level and their own pace, consequently they gain confidence and succeed.  Pupils work quietly, at their desks, in a disciplined environment, and the teacher is there to give one to one assistance from time to time as it is required.

 

The Seniors are organised in year groups and are taught by specialist teachers.  They are prepared for six or more GCSE subjects, currently:  English,  English Literature, Mathematics, Science (Double or Triple certification), French, History, Religious Studies and Geography.  They also study for certificates in Information Technology.
