St. Francis' College, Hertfordshire

St. Francis' College, Broadway, Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire, SG6 3PJ

Academic Excellence is undeniable. The school requires students to set personal reading goals regularly and closely monitors their progress to ensure that their academic achievements meet the school's standards. During our visit to the school through LINKEDU, we were told that students in Year 11 or below typically complete their homework under the supervision of teachers, and they do not need to take homework back to their dormitories. However, teacher supervision is strict, and students are not allowed to use their phones before completing their work. This is part of the school's adherence to tradition, where strict guidance and discipline are considered crucial for academic success. St Francis' College maintains high academic standards, and looking at the universities where students progress, it is evident that the majority of students gain admission to renowned UK institutions, such as UCL, LSE, KCL, Durham, and other Russell Group universities. Encouraging Student Involvement in the Community Apart from academic achievements, the school also places emphasis on personal development, training students to care about and contribute to the community around them.

Gresham's School

Cromer Road, Holt, NR25 6EA

Dyson's Support for STEAM Education In 2019, Gresham's School received a donation of nearly $200 million from alumnus James Dyson to construct a dedicated STEAM centre called The Dyson Institute of Engineering and Technology.

Students have time and space to engage in creative projects, which allows them to solve problems using different approaches, learn how to collaborate with others, turn ideas into reality, and develop their decision-making skills. Undoubtedly, these skills will be essential in their lives and future careers. Comprehensive Higher Education Support Gresham's School prepares students for university from mid-Year 12. Through extensive seminars, conferences, and individual consultation plans, students are guided to make informed and confident decisions. Students receive support throughout the UCAS application process using the Unifrog platform and have the option to participate in mock interviews to boost their confidence.
