Buckswood is an academic community with learning at the core of all that we do. Small class sizes within a small school environment ensure that we are able to educate each child with a level of personal care and attention that few schools or colleges can match.

We push all our students to achieve their full potential; we push students to excel and to appreciate that industry is inevitably the foundation of success at any level.

We welcome regular contact with all parents in addition to the Consultation Evenings held every term, and parents also receive at least two formal assessment sheets per term plus hand-written reports for each subject.

Our Access Time system gives students an open invitation to visit teachers in their subject classrooms after school each evening, thereby providing both help and extension– just that little bit of extra, personal advice can make all the difference.

Prep (homework) is done at school under the supervision of Form Tutors. The benefit of all this is highlighted in our recent GCSE, GCE & Cambridge International examination results – not the last word in success, but a barometer nonetheless.

We offer a wide-ranging and varied curriculum throughout the lower years allowing students to discover a talent in everything from public speaking to cooking chocolate brownies, and from rudimentary Mandarin to web design.

The essence of Buckswood, its spirit of internationalism, courses through the veins of its academic programme at all times offering a cultural vibrancy as an added learning dimension.
