Our oldest pupils feel a sense of achievement and privilege in reaching the Senior Department.
The curriculum remains diverse, challenging and entertaining but simultaneously prepares pupils appropriately for their 13+ examinations and scholarships.
Alongside the academic curriculum, we focus on other key areas, notably:
- Academic Curiosity
- Charitable Giving
- Future Aspirations
- Global Understanding
- Presentation and Oracy
- Service to the School
- Teamwork and Collaboration
These are assessed via the Edge Grove Diploma.
At the end of their time at Edge Grove our Year 8 pupils are socially and academically prepared for the transition to their chosen senior schools, feeling confident that they have been well prepared for the challenges that lie ahead.
