Upper School Curriculum

At Preston Manor, we envision a thriving educational community where every student, regardless of background, is empowered to achieve excellence. We are committed to providing an exceptional education that surpasses national standards, ensuring that every student not only meets but exceeds their targets. Through our rigorous curriculum and eight Teaching and Learning Principles, we nurture a culture of ambition, responsibility and excellence.

Our dedicated teachers are experts in their subject and are committed to improving their practice through professional development and pertinent reading. They take responsibility for meeting the needs of all students, including those with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Leaders at all levels are actively involved in monitoring the implementation of our curriculum to ensure it impacts positively on students’ outcomes.

We nurture a culture of intellectual curiosity, setting up consistent homework to develop independent and responsible learners. Our rigorous assessment system helps us track student progress and refine our academic curriculum. We celebrate our students’ self-worth in every lesson, fostering a learning environment where they can speak eloquently, write with clarity and read extensively.

Together, we ARE dedicated to developing the leaders, thinkers and innovators of tomorrow.
