Features

Things to note

  • PERFORMING ARTS: The School has a long and distinguished record of musical achievement. We offer individual tuition in a range of instruments and voice, with over one hundred hours of lessons taking place each week in the school. We also organise a large number of performances both inside and outside of school every year. The extra-curricular programme of ensembles is varied with groups ranging from string ensembles and brass bands to choirs and jazz combos. All Year 7 students perform at both the Christmas Concert at St George’s Church in Beckenham, and at the Spring Gala Concerts which take place in the school’s purpose-built Performance Hall. In addition to providing a range of opportunities for those starting out on their musical careers, the school also has a reputation for high quality music making, with students performing at regional and national levels. Our drama department arranges many performances every year. Shows in our professional-specification Performance Hall quickly sell out, even when staged over three or more nights, with an audience of over 500 per performance. Recent shows have included: Beauty and the Beast, 1984, Comedy of Errors and Macbeth all with a cast of over 100 students taken from every year group in the school. GCSE and A Level pieces are performed to the public, as well as a high quality Lower School Production. Drama club for Years 7, 8 and 9 is always popular and students are given the opportunity to work with LAMDA (the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art) through the school. Our budding theatre technicians are supported in pursuing their interests and have access to West End standard lighting and sound equipment. We also run countless theatre visits every year covering everything from Bertolt Brecht to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. In July 2001 external recognition came with the awarding of the Artsmark Gold Standard by the Arts Council. This has now been sustained on successive occasions.
  • SPORT AND OUTDOOR EDUCATION: The School is particularly noted for its sporting record and continues to arrange major sports tours. Rugby teams have visited Canada, South Africa and Europe. Hockey teams have visited South Africa, Australia, Malaysia and South America. Our major sports are Rugby, Hockey, Cricket, Tennis and Athletics. In addition to regular coaching and practices, inter-school fixtures are played week by week throughout the year in every year group of the School. There are opportunities for participating in other sports, notably badminton and gymnastics. We frequently supply boys to county, national and international teams: in recent years we have produced internationals in our five major sports, and we are particularly proud of our reputation as one of the foremost sports schools in the region. Several hundred students a year benefit from the School’s ownership of its Study Centre in Derbyshire. In Year 9, all boys take part in our one-week Outdoor Summer School based at Dover. The Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme is offered to students from Year 10 to 13 at bronze and silver levels.
