All children are taught in mixed ability classes, with children of the same age. Children may be taught English, Maths or other core subjects in smaller groups if we consider support is needed. There are 3 departments:

Early Years: Pre-Nursery (age 2) Nursery (age 3) and Reception (age 4) classes Primary: Years 1 - 6 (ages 5 - 10)
Secondary: Year 9 (Age 13). Academic year 2010 will introduce IGCSE Year 10 (Age 14)

British qualified staff deliver the English National Curriculum supported in most instances by a native English speaking Teacher's Assistant.
