We have an expectation that
students will remain at school until
the end of year 13. Senior students
are encouraged to take subjects
according to their abilities and some
take subjects across various year
levels. The emphasis is on individual
learning programmes according to
individual needs. Courses are also
available through distance learning if
they cannot be offered at the college.
