We encourage your sons to be inquisitive and open-minded as they discover new approaches, new interests and new passions. We encourage the boys to ask themselves not only ‘Why’ but ‘Why not?
The curriculum
As one of the UK’s leading schools, we offer a rigorous academic programme to ensure your son reaches his potential.
With outstanding teaching and superb facilities, the design of our curriculum is integral to the boys’ experience, our aim being to maximise learning, equipping them with the knowledge, skills and aptitudes they need while sustaining their personal development and enjoyment.
In 2024, the Independent Schools Inspectorate (ISI) praised the School’s innovative Sixth Form curriculum and the academic enrichment it provides, delivering outstanding A Level results and progression to world-class universities and careers. The Good Schools Guide (2025) endorsed the School for offering “intellectual stimulation at every turn, with sky-high academic standards”.
