Secondary School begins from the age of 11. Students in Years 6 to 8 follow a course of study which provides a broad and balanced range of learning experiences. In Years 6 to 8 students are assessed regularly throughout the year in a variety of ways including homework, class projects, practical work and summative evaluations. Students are examined with official Cambridge Checkpoint Examinations mathematics, science, and English at the end of Grade 8 to evaluate their learning.
