Our school curriculums are accredited by the UK Department of Education and are designed to meet the needs of our pupils at every stage of their development. We offer the UK National Curriculum, GCSEs, A Levels and the BTEC Diploma. Each course promotes inquiry-based education, from Pre-Prep to Sixth Form, and delivers a hands-on, applied learning methodology.
Students follow a project-based approach across all subjects. This approach is also articulated in the annual’ Fulham Project’, a school-wide initiative by which each year group undertakes a single activity. Projects may involve a joint work of art, a play, the organisation of a party, a charity fundraiser, or an educational course for younger children.
The Fulham Project encourages collaboration between students and their teachers, allowing them to work towards a common cause in a way that characterises our community.
Our Senior School in London provides a future-focused GCSE course in a welcoming and highly supportive environment, ideal for pupils who seek an engaging, broad-ranging secondary education from Years 9 to Year 11.
Our High School is situated on Chesilton Road in Fulham, West London for Year 10 and above, with Year 9 located at our Greyhound Road Campus, Fulham.
Our Senior School’s GCSE education offers excellent opportunities for young people who are ready to embrace their learning. Our UK curriculum couples traditional core subjects with specially selected activities that give all pupils the chance to discover their strengths, learn from their mistakes and grow in confidence.
At our Senior School, students are assisted by their teachers as they make vital learning decisions. We seek to ensure that our pupils excel in the areas they care about most, and are equipped to overcome challenges by supporting them every step of the way.
Fulham Senior School Curriculum
Year 9
Our transformative, creative, and inspiring curriculum distinguishes our Senior division. To support our students effectively, we implement a long-term assessment schedule, which goes hand-in-hand with personal support. Senior students take a timed test in most subjects each week. ‘Cycle Assessment’ allows us to combine traditional exam methods with innovative teaching techniques to reinforce GCSE learning methods. In addition, age-appropriate homework tasks are set according to a timetable.In Year 9, the curriculum is broad to empower students to challenge their inquisitive minds across several topics. They discover their interests and strengths and gain a broader perspective on the world around them through increased awareness of global events.
Year 10 & 11
In Years 10 and 11, learning objectives become more specific and detailed in preparation for GCSE examinations. GCSE preparation is two-fold. Learners focus on understanding subject content, while also developing skills in analysis, evaluation, research and independent study. After-school activities balance academic education, and the Senior School timetable incorporates PSHE topics, and the ‘Fulham Core’ module, which is scheduled during tutor time.We are proud to provide students with two unique school subjects: our weekly Communication Skills course and the Independent Learning Project, which is designed to equip pupils with robust research, analysis, communication, and presentation skills.Senior School Class sizes are relatively small. The maximum number of students is 22, guaranteeing a high degree of personal support and sufficient opportunities for involvement in all lessons and activities.
The Fulham Project
On an annual basis, each year group comes together to design and deliver a project or service for others in the school community. To complete the project successfully, pupils need to communicate with each other, collaborate effectively, and follow the cycle of attempting, failing, refining and succeeding. Project work offers a unique way for students to apply the skills they have gained from other subjects, increase their resilience to challenges, adopt leadership skills, and demonstrate tolerance when faced with adversity.
At Fulham School, London, our Sixth Form offers a senior years’ education that propels academic excellence and ambition; one that encourages adventure, independent learning, and team collaboration; and one that develops astute, globally-minded young citizens with the knowledge, compassion, and confidence they need to succeed.
Our transformative and creative curriculum offers students a choice between A Levels, BTEC Level 3 Diplomas and Subsidiary Diplomas. Alternatively, if permitted to do so, young adults may personalise their Sixth Form education by choosing a combination of subjects from the three course pathways, selecting options from our extensive range of Higher Level subjects.
We are delighted to see the progress of pupils as they ocntinue their first-class education at our school.
