Students study English, Maths, Science, Art, Danish, German, History, Information and Communication Technology, Music, Physical Education and PSHE. An enrichment class for Gifted and Talented students, the Minerva Circle, fosters creativity, independence and intellectual curiosity in small groups.
Community Circle coordinates cultural and international days and events. Danish and German are offered as part of the Cambridge International Curriculum. Community Circle also provides opportunities for parents and community members to participate in school life and celebrate diversity.
Community Circle supports social activities such as school fairs, seasonal celebrations, sports day support, school discos and movie nights. These activities are run with volunteer involvement and are listed in the school calendar; the weekly Engage newsletter communicates upcoming events.
