Specialisms
editThe school has specialisms in mathematics and science, and languages, and supports this with a regular specialisms newsletter distributed amongst its students and parents.
A house on site facilitates the staying of language assistants, natives of either Germany, Spain or France, to assist students with their language studies, and all three subjects are complemented by trips to the relevant country, previous trips having sent students to Santander and Barcelona.
