Opportunities at BGS
The opportunities our students seize here at BGS are as far-reaching as they are numerous: from leadership opportunities of all kinds; to co-curricular clubs, sports teams, musical ensembles and theatre productions; to super-curricular trips far and wide.
Academic opportunities are afforded students via our broad curriculum, designed to inspire and challenge our students. Our curriculum helps students to prepare for higher education and beyond, with a global perspective rooted in our ethos of intellect, empathy and courage. All students study two languages and all three separate sciences. Students looking to extend their knowledge can click on the image below and find guidance and support for each subject.
Leadership opportunities are vast throughout our students' time with us, and include the Student Council, the Academic Council, the Environmental Action Group, Peers Mentors (who receive training and recognition through the Diana Award), House Captains, Subject Prefects, Senior Prefects and more!
Participation is celebrated at BGS. The supportive ethos of the school is driven by a wide range of co-curricular opportunities and an amazingly vibrant House System. There is a full programme of concerts and plays during the year, an art exhibition and the annual musical production of near West End quality. For the timetable of clubs, click on the image below.
Super-curricular opportunities. A typical academic year generates about seventy day-visits run by all subject areas in addition to a wide range of residential trips both in the UK and all over the world. We have also recently seen a group of students take part in a life-changing visit to Malaysia, as part of a World Challenge Expedition. Alongside this impactful opportunity, we offer the Duke of Edinburgh's Award Scheme, Young Enterprise, the Jack Petchey Award and numerous other initiatives.
