The English National Curriculum is the basis of the work at Victoria English School. Both the content and methods of teaching approach are up-to-date, so that our students are able to benefit from the latest developments in education. Our staff receive frequent training in the latest methods, books and materials. To see the staff list, click here.
The National Curriculum for England and Wales is divided into Key Stages. Stages 1 and 2 are for children of primary school age. Key Stage 3 applies to ages 11 to 14 and Key Stage 4 represents age 14 to 16, when students follow the IGCSE/GCSE courses.
There is a Learning Support Department for those students that require extra help. Click here to read more.
