Inspiring students to greatness
Academic Support
Support for High Performing Students
Students with strong academic ability and English skills are provided with challenging additional activities. High performing students have opportunities to work beyond the curriculum through leadership opportunities, academic challenges and online university courses (MOOC). In addition, UpLearn is a platform utilised by A level students to support their attainment.
Additional Sessions
We offer extra sessions for students who need them, and staff are always more than happy to help with any academic support. The aim of our additional learning support is to raise a student's level of independence, increasing their enjoyment of learning and empowering them to succeed academically.
Encouraging Success
Our teaching staff are committed to getting the best out of every student. Teachers set challenging targets, encouraging students to deepen their learning through further study and research utilising resources in our Learning Resource Centre. Teachers work with each student to continuously improve their work, while Personal Tutors provide extra support as required.
Education Expertise
The Worthgate School was the first school in the UK to offer the University Foundation Programme, meaning students can feel confident they are being taught by the most experienced staff who know what universities are looking for in a candidate.

Excellent Teachers
We place great emphasis on regular professional development for our teachers, meaning we teach our students with the latest techniques, ensuring they receive an enhanced learning experience in and out of the classroom.
Immersive English
The Worthgate School is a fully immersive English environment. All school life, including lessons, are conducted in English, giving every student the opportunity to master the language in both academic and social settings. Our immersive education style nurtures every student to build knowledge, become resilient and achieve the best outcomes in life.
Celebrating Success
All students completing their course at The Worthgate School are invited to attend our Graduation Ceremony along with their closest family members every August. The ceremony is a wonderful way to say farewell and have a formal end to the year.
