GCSE at Haileybury

The potential pathways that are available to pupils are child-centred: we believe in offering a personalised curriculum that will allow each and every pupil to study the courses that are appropriate to them.

The curriculum has, at its core, the subjects that sit at the heart of academic study: English, studied as both Language and Literature, Mathematics and Science, studied as Biology, Chemistry and Physics.

Every pupil will then develop this core through a selection of optional subjects, which will allow them to consider whether they want to begin to specialise, or whether they want to remain broad in their outlook.

The GCSE years are a time of progression and development. Whilst it is easy to see them as a stepping stone to further study, it is crucial to remember that these courses are wonderful in their own right, and present an excellent opportunity to develop solid academic foundations upon which later learning will be built.
