Year 7 - 11

The Key Stage 3 Curriculum for Years 7 to 9 is designed to give students depth and breadth in their studies. It is also carefully crafted to allow students to explore ideas across subject areas, develop interests and pursue passions. Founded on the English National Curriculum and tailored to meet BST's context, learning in Years 7 to 9 seeks to develop students' inquiry skills, problem-solving and critical thinking within the context of the wider world.

Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11) begins the students' GCSE journey. The Secondary School utilises a combination of GCSE and (I)GCSEs to ensure that learning is bespoke to our British and international student body. The (I)GCSE qualifications include external exams set and marked by independent, internationally-recognised bodies and are taken at the end of Year 11. Each student can shape their curriculum through their subject choices, allowing them to pursue their passions and excel in their chosen areas of study.

Although BST is currently running the UK A Level system for Year 12 and Year 13, this is being phased out, with our last A-Level cohort running from 2024- 2026. 

BST is currently a candidate school* for the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP), working towards becoming an authorised IB World School for students of Year 12 and Year 13.

* Only schools authorized by the IB Organization can offer any of its four academic programmes: the Primary Years Programme (PYP), the Middle Years Programme (MYP), the Diploma Programme (DP), or the Career-related Programme (CP). Candidate status gives no guarantee that authorization will be granted. For further information about the IB and its programmes visit http://www.ibo.org.
