St.George's runs super-curricular learning that goes beyond the traditional curriculum. Students undertake independent research projects, advanced courses, specialised electives, internships and participate in conferences and academic competitions. The school forms strategic partnerships with leaders in fields such as music and film, and with organisations like TED, ResearchED and Harvard to deliver guest lectures and immersive projects. These experiences support advanced learning, skills development and career exploration.

The Arts are an integral part of the curriculum. Pupils engage in choirs, bands, orchestras, drama, dance, painting, podcasts, film and photography. Private music lessons are available with external instructors scheduled during the school day. The Drama Department runs workshops and annual productions, and music is supported by professional music suites and recording studios.
