Facilities and activities support a wide extracurricular offering, with 50+ ECA programmes and distinctive options in sports such as cheerleading, cricket, lacrosse, hockey and rugby. Signature whole-school events include the International Fun Fair, Life-wide Learning Camps and Service Outreach Week. Pastoral care is supported by SEN teachers, an Educational Psychologist, an EAL Coordinator, social workers and a dedicated Wellbeing Centre, and the school notes small class sizes with a low teacher–student ratio.
