We are a school with a broad and varied curriculum which allows pupils to widen their horizons and experience success in a variety of different subjects.

We are also a school that provides an extensive range of extra-curricular activities to ensure pupils enjoy their time with us and are exposed to new and exciting opportunities.

This allows them to grow personally and socially. We are determined that pupils will leave the school as confident and ambitious young people who are well prepared to embark on a happy and successful life beyond the school gates.

Built around the core subjects, English, maths and sciences, our inclusive curriculum aims to prepare all students to be successful in both formal examinations and their future lives.

Our curriculum, across all five-year groups, gives students the opportunity to experience a broad range of subjects, skills and different learning styles.

Throughout the early years at Frederick Gent School, students will be given many exciting and important opportunities.

These include; studying a range of humanities’ subjects, discovering the language and culture of foreign countries, exploring the arts through music, art, dance and drama, practising manual skills through design technology and food, learning to work in the world of information technology and digital media, as well as maintaining a healthy lifestyle through physical education.

As students’ progress, all are given the opportunity to choose which of these subjects, alongside the core elements, they will continue to study up to examination level, at the end of Year 11.
