Course Guides

We publish course guides to explain the main stages of the curriculum.

Our curriculum follows the UK format of Early Years and Key Stages 1 - 4 and then the International Baccalaureate.  Details of these programmes are available in our course guides.  The primary curriculum handbook covers Early Years, Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2, whilst the secondary school is covered by three separate guides for Key Stage 3, Key Stage 4 and the IB. These are quite big files, and might take a while to download.  Contact us if you have any difficulty.
