Lady Evelyn Independent School’s curriculum is designed to encourage thought, curiosity and a desire for learning in all students, regardless of their backgrounds, strengths and needs. The curriculum should be a gateway to opportunity and a knowledge-based vibrant community in the United Kingdom and beyond. It must also reflect national policy and priorities.
The School’s curriculum provides students with an introduction to the essential knowledge that they need to be educated citizens, and also helps to engender an appreciation of human creativity and achievement.
The curriculum provides an outline of core knowledge around which teachers can develop exciting and stimulating lessons to promote the development of students’ knowledge, understanding and skills as part of the wider school curriculum.
This policy sets out the curriculum that underpins teaching and learning at the School. The curriculum will serve the aims of the School and its community. This is defined through the School’s mission of educational excellence, character development and service to communities.
As well as helping students gain admission to top universities, the academic life at Lady Evelyn Independent School encourages scholarship, intellectual curiosity, independent thought and effective learning habits. We offer a coherent and balanced curriculum that responds quickly to changing requirements, as well as a challenging and inspiring Super-Curriculum that widens and enriches boys’ knowledge and understanding.
Lady Evelyn Independent School’s online learning platform and lesson library enable learners to make great progress in their studies. Our students have control over their learning and their interactions around the school; a personal, engaging teaching experience where they can directly and discreetly ask questions to their teachers during and after classes to ensure they have an in-depth understanding of the subject or topic before moving on.
Above all, what we offer our young people is time. The effectiveness of our school means that students are ‘in school’ only for three or four hours a day giving them an unrivalled opportunity to pursue their personal interests, hobbies, pastimes and other activities they want to undertake. It all adds up to make Lady Evelyn Independent School as individual as our students.
At Lady Evelyn Independent School we understand that choosing the right school for your child is one of the biggest decisions you will ever have to make. Lady Evelyn Independent School calendar follows traditional UK independent school terms. Each year is a 35 week academic year.
Our school addresses the academic, pastoral and social needs of each pupil individually.
Our Key Stage 3, 4 and 5 curriculum are taught by qualified, trained and experienced staff whose detailed knowledge of their subject is matched by their motivation and energy to see every student in their care succeed.

Lady Evelyn Independent School’s state of the art online learning platform and engaging learning resources enables students to make great progress in their studies. We give our students control over their learning and they enjoy their interactions around the school; a personal, engaging teaching experience.
We make it easy for parents to be involved and follow their child’s progress. Parents are given their own access to the school portal which provides constant information about their child’s progress, feedback and assignments. This is supplemented by regular written feedback from all their teachers.
Above all, we offer our young people flexibility and time. The effectiveness of our learning platform means that students are able to watch missed lessons back in full.
We are able to support students who join the school during the course of an academic year; this is hugely assisted by our online course resources, modules and the discrete, personal interaction pupils can have with our teachers during lessons.
