'Future Proofing' Curriculum:
We are also committed to equipping our learners for the jobs of the future - roles that may not yet exist. According to the World Economic Forum, the "fourth industrial revolution" emphasises the importance of skills such as creativity, complex problem-solving, and emotional intelligence. To prepare our students, we offer an additional 'Future Proofing' curriculum that allows students to customise a range of experiences through non-examined courses over their two-year programme. This approach ensures that they are not only ready for today but also equipped to thrive in tomorrow's workforce.
