What curricula do you teach?

We teach the English National Curriculum on all three of our campuses. In Senior School, students study for their GCSEs, while at Sixth Form, learners follow our A-level curriculum. At d'Overbroeck's International School, we offer a choice of five programmes, which have been carefully curated to meet the individual needs, entry points, and backgrounds of our overseas students.

What foreign languages do you offer?

We teach French, Spanish, and Latin in Senior School. At the International School, we offer French and Spanish, as well as a comprehensive English as an Additional Language (EAL) programme. And in Sixth Form, we teach Classical Greek, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Latin, Mandarin, Russian, and Spanish.

What size are your classes?

Our class sizes vary by age group and school site. Typically, however, your child will learn in small classes with a maximum of 15 students. Across our campuses, our average teacher-student ratio is 1 to 7.

Which universities do your students go to?

Many of our graduates continue their education at the UK’s best universities, including University College London, Oxford, and the London School of Economics. With the expert guidance of our Higher Education and Careers Team, students with specialist talents – including in the performing and fine arts – discover their own pathways to excellence, too.

Do your students wear a uniform?

No, they don’t. We embrace informality at d’Overbroeck’s, which means your child can wear the clothes they feel most comfortable in.
