Academic

The academic programme for pupils of all ages at Felsted is dynamic and progressive.

From the earliest years in Prep through to our Sixth Form at the Senior School, teachers draw on the latest research into teaching and learning to deliver lessons that are exciting, engaging and tailored exactly to the class and the individuals within it. Learning is brought to life on a regular basis, through visits and talks by outside experts, workshops and hands-on sessions, and a round of trips and excursions designed to demonstrate to the pupils that the curriculum can extend beyond the classroom and their knowledge has an application in the real world.

Our daughter has achieved beyond our expectations and watching her academic confidence grow has been lovely to watch.

Academic Extension

Our extensive programme of academic enrichment opportunities provides an ideal opportunity for pupils to challenge themselves at all levels and explore opportunities beyond the curriculum.

Many of our academic and co-curricular subjects overlap, with opportunities to enjoy them as part of the curriculum but also as a co-curricular option. Supported by subject specialists or external experts, our pupils learn to lead their own learning, further developing their character to make a difference to the world around them.

A few examples of what we offer can be viewed below:
