Our stretch projects enable scholars to prepare for completing the EPQ and dissertations when they get to university.

Careers education

We provide students with opportunities to engage regularly with employers and develop the knowledge and skills to be successful in the workplace.

Family dining

We eat lunch ‘family dining’ style, during which scholars learn to serve themselves and each other.
