Teaching & academics

The sixth form leans firmly towards the sciences and mathematics, with Maths, Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Further Maths among the most popular A-levels alongside Business Studies and Psychology. At GCSE, pupils gravitate to the English subjects, Maths, History, Psychology and Computing. Around 9% of pupils receive SEN support. Reported headline measures sit well below national averages, so parents should ask the school directly about how these figures are calculated and how progress is tracked for individual pupils.
