In accordance with the Education Reform With our Head Teacher  and the deputy Head for Curriculum Ms. Ramona Esparon at the helm of our boat, the school tries hard to offer opportunities to all student. The moment they join the school in S1 they follow subjects such as English, French, Mathematics, Science, Geography and History, in addition to Religion, Physical Education (P.E) and Technical studies. 

The first 3 years are very crucial since at the end of S3, the students are required to choose an option which consists of the subjects that match particular interests or         career aspirations. All students experience a program of personal and social education (PSE) which provides the support to allow them to make well considered choices on matters relating to higher education and career choice.

The day is divided into eight 40 minute periods with six periods in the morning and two in the afternoon.

                                                                THE CURRICULUM

During the first three years [S1,S2 and S3] , the students follow essentially the same subject curriculum which includes English , Mathematics , Geography , History , Science , French , Religion , Physical Education [PE] , technical studies and Personal and Social Education [PSE]. 

The students are streamed into three bands A, B and C for each level and the classes are named as below

Year 1:S1A1, S1A2, S1B1, S1B2, S1C                              [5 classes ]

Students remain in these groups for registration and also follow Religion , PSE and PE lessons .

For technical studies , they are taught by bands .That is , for S1 for example , S1A1 and S1A2 go for

technical studies together .These include subjects such as Art and Design , construction technology , agriculture and fisheries, Social Economics and computer studies .So , the 60 or so students in band A for example are divided into 5 groups of around 12 students each .For the other subjects, the students are set according to their ability , but still respecting the bands.
