Curriculum Overview

Curriculum Overview

During Years 10-11, students can achieve success through our (i)GCSE programme. They will continue to study the following core curriculum:

  • Language acquisition (Chinese and French or Spanish)
  • English language and literature (English)
  • Mathematics
  • Physical and Health Education
  • Sciences (Chemistry, Physics, Biology)

Students can personalise their programmes by making three choices from any combination of the following areas:

  • Individuals and Societies (Philosophy & Religion, Business, Economics, Geography, History)
  • Creative Thinking and Expression (Art, Drama, Music, Resistant Materials, Graphics, Textiles, Food, Dance, Media, Hospitality)

In addition, we are keen that our learners are ready for the jobs of the future that don’t yet exist. The ‘fourth industrial revolution’ described by the World Economic Forum identifies the skills of creativity, complex problem solving and emotional intelligence as critical. Students are therefore able to tailor a suite of experiences from non-examined courses across their two-year programme.
