Belfairs is a school ideally placed to cater for pupils of all abilities across the 11 – 18 age range. During the first three years students follow the full National Curriculum as prescribed  for all schools and thereafter a choice of qualification routes become available.

The majority of our students follow academic programmes of study leading to examinations at GCSE followed by GCE Advanced level courses. In addition to this, we are also able to provide an increasing number of broad vocational options in areas such as ICT, Business Studies, and Arts and Leisure at foundation, intermediate and advanced level.

Our record of achievement includes many students gaining three A Levels and moving on to university, plus others who have secured a full range of GCSE awards at the highest grades. Equally we are proud to now have a growing number of successful candidates completing vocational courses.

Children develop at different rates. Their needs and ambitions may change as they become clearer about what they want to do with their lives. The scope and flexibility, which we can offer at Belfairs means we are able to respond to those changes and open up pathways to higher education or a worthwhile career.
