Curriculum
Our Hampshire location and facilities mean we can offer a far broader and more balanced education than many other schools. Education isn’t only about formal exams: we believe in taking children beyond the classroom to our kitchen garden, fields, lakes and woodland to bring Maths, English, Science and History to life - and making sure sports, music and the arts flourish alongside other academic disciplines. A broad and balanced education founded on academic excellence: teaching the whole child.
Our highly qualified teachers inspire and bring learning to life: their multi-sensory approach complements our broad curriculum, developing meaningful cross-curricular links wherever possible.
For example:
- In English, we encourage children to exercise their imagination and express themselves via the written word, debates and visual media.
- Our Maths department works on the basis that meaningful learning comes from understanding how and why mathematical principles relate to everyday life and experiences.
- Inspirational lessons lead into group work, peer discussion and kinaesthetic tasks - alongside essential rote learning.
- Bringing History alive includes re-enactments of battles: Hastings with horses, Agincourt in the woods and Trafalgar on the lake.
