Senior School (MYP)
Our Senior School inspires students to thrive, become the best version of themselves, and develop the skills to unlock their full potential. As the UK’s newest International Baccalaureate (IB) school, we follow the IB Middle Years Programme (MYP), which fosters international-mindedness and cultivates key Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills such as critical thinking, communication, and research. In the final year, students undertake a Personal Project, encouraging creativity and independent inquiry. Focused on inquiry, collaboration, and service, the MYP prepares students for academic success and equips them to make a positive impact on the world. With a strong academic foundation, a global perspective, and the confidence to navigate an ever-changing world, our students are well-prepared for future success.

IB learners strive to be inquirers, knowledgeable, thinkers, communicators, principled, open-minded, caring, risk-takers, balanced and reflective. In the MYP, students study 8 subject groups, with a minimum of 50 hours for Years 7 to 9, and 70 hours for Years 10 and 11. Distinctive features of the MYP include:
