The campus at 317 Portobello Road provides classrooms, a dedicated library, a laboratory, eight desdoble classrooms, and two ICT rooms that house desktops, laptops and tablets. On-site spaces include a staff room, reception, and offices for the director and head of studies, plus a dining hall with external catering and a packed-lunch option. Morning care is available, and a broad programme of after-school activities and language clubs complements academic study, supported by AMPA involvement throughout.
