IB Middle Years Programme*


Our 11 to 14-year-old students follow the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP). The MYP is an internationally recognised curriculum framework, which values holistic learning through academic and personal growth. A concept-based curriculum, the MYP invites students to ask thought-provoking questions and create innovative solutions to real-world challenges, all while developing personally as reflective and resilient learners.

 

The MYP structures learning around 8 subject groups: Language and Literature, Language Acquisition, Individuals and Societies, Integrated Sciences, Mathematics, Physical Health and Education, Design and Arts (Visual and Performing). Students learn through an inquiry-based approach to learning – investigating problems and grappling with complex ideas framed by global contexts. Learning is frequently collaborative, and students are challenged to develop skills in effective communication and self-regulation. The MYP truly develops lifelong learners

 

Enrichment learning features highly our Key Stage 3 programme. All students participate in enrichment activities, where they take risks, make new friends, and grow further. We offer a variety of athletics, arts and community engagement activities through enrichment to complement our academic programme.

International General Certificate of Secondary Education (igcse)

Our IGCSE programme provides a strong foundation for the IB Diploma Programme and future university study.

Students study core subjects including English, Mathematics and Sciences, alongside a range of optional subjects such as Languages, Humanities, Arts and Technology. This balance allows them to explore their interests while building deeper knowledge over time.

We guide students carefully through their subject choices with personalised support, helping them find the right path for their strengths and ambitions.


At the end of Year 11, students take internationally recognised Cambridge IGCSE exams. With experienced teachers and continued enrichment opportunities, students are well prepared for the next step in their education.
