Who it fits — and who it does not

  • Families set on the IB pathway — it is a recorded curriculum family here.
  • Families who need boarding — boarding is offered.
  • Families for whom budget is not the first constraint — its midpoint sits above the South median.
  • Families whose children fit its span (2–18 (1,130 students, 55 nationalities — school profile 2025/26)) — check the top year before shortlisting.
