Early Years students (aged 2–5) are assessed against the UK Curriculum's Early Learning Goals, largely through observation of learning in progress.

Primary students (aged 5–11) are assessed using the standards of the English National Curriculum through continuous formative assessments by highly skilled teachers. As students advance, we incorporate externally benchmarked tests in core subjects—English, Reading, Mathematics, and Science—using GL Assessments, a highly regarded suite of age-appropriate physical and computer-based tests widely used by top-tier British schools.

We also make use of CAT4 assessments to benchmark and track the development of cognitive abilities as well as Pupil Attitude to Self and School (PASS) tests, which provide an insight into students' social-emotional learning, relationships and overall wellbeing.

Our future Secondary students (11-18 y.o. students) complete IGCSEs and A-levels in preparation for entry to the world's leading universities.

Schools Trust schools have extremely high academic standards and achieve exemplary student outcomes. 90% of students graduating from our global network of schools secure a place at their first choice of university / higher education institution.

A modest, age-appropriate quantity of homework is set. Homework for younger learners is fun, practical and game-based but some more structured homework is set as children enter the upper Primary years. Children are expected to complete reading at home, supported by adults or older siblings.

This varies by age/class. Year 1 children of 5 years of age are generally set around 20 minutes a night comprised of reading, learning spelling words and times tables practice. Upper Primary students receive up to 40 minutes a night including some more structured tasks.

Children entering Years 1 and 2 (5-7 y.o.), if appropriate, will additionally complete games and exercises to ascertain their level of phonics/reading, numeracy and writing.

Children who are developmentally ready, in Years 3-4 (7-9 y.o.), will be asked to attempt CAT4 to ascertain their cognitive abilities and may be invited to complete some age-appropriate reading, writing mathematics testing.
