Educational Programme

The school’s programme is an international one based on the British National curriculum.
The curriculum seeks a balance between the search for meaning and understanding, and the acquisition of essential skills and knowledge. It emphasizes interdisciplinary enquiry and the all-round development of students. It encourages the comparison of different cultural perspectives so as to develop critical thinking.

The content is drawn from the best of many national curricula, and taught through an international perspective similar to the International Baccalaureate approach.

It seeks to give children the depth and focus of a European curriculum, while simultaneously addressing the issues of breadth and context. It enables students to meet the academic requirements of most school curricula throughout the world, providing a strong adaptability for a child who moves on to other educational establishments.

Curriculum keywords are the balance between skills and knowledge, creativity, community engagement and environmental awareness.

Chartwell works in association with a range of high schools, local and international, which follow a similar educational philosophy. Chartwell pupils can follow their schooling to Cambridge examinations wherever they go in the world.
