The broad and flexible curriculum at this International School is designed to help students excel, ensuring they’re ready for the next stage of their academic career. Underpinned by the International Baccalaureate, Advanced Placement courses, AP Capstone Diploma and the US High School Diploma, their curriculum emphasises life skills as much as academic excellence, with a focus on experiential learning and leadership that ensures they nurture confident, caring, well-rounded individuals who are ready for the future.
Hillingdon’s 11-acre campus is less than 14 miles from central London, enabling students to benefit from opportunities in both the city and countryside. Their magnificent Greater London campus has outstanding facilities, and a wealth of history, art and culture right on its doorstep.

- Strong IT skills, preferably with Apple products
