I was completely surprised with the level of competitions and other activities that enhance the learning – for example the chess club, the World Economic competition, the business Olympiad. It was a nice surprise and Antonio has taken advantage of a lot of those.

Pupils enrolled on our full-time or enrichment programme participate in the House Award, which rewards their commitment to extracurricular activities, both within and outside the School.  

Pupils can take part in activities online or in their local community. For activities that take place outside of the School, a responsible adult completes a report on the pupil’s involvement, and evidence of the activity, normally including photographs or a video, are submitted. 

There are three levels of achievement for this award: Pass, Merit and Distinction. Pupils obtain points for individual attributes spread across all of the four channels: 

• Charity and Service;  

• The Arts;  

• Sport and Wellbeing; and 

• Academic Development.
