Personal Pathway
We pride ourselves on developing outstanding individuals as well as achieving excellent exam outcomes. As part of their Personal Pathway, students embrace the rich co-curricular programme. This enables students to make friends, develop soft skills, gain leadership experience and give back to the school and local community.
