Holy Mary British Catholic School caters for children aged two years to eighteen years old (our oldest year group is moving into Yr11 and are following the GCSE programmes of study) offering the British curriculum. It is a school in great demand due to the quality of education it offers and to the high standards it sets. All the teachers offering the British programmes of study are trained in the UK and Ireland and with UK National Curriculum teaching experience. All our students are exposed to a variety of formative and summative assessments that occur throughout the school year from Early Years Foundation Stage to Key Stage 4, which helps us identify the strengths and weaknesses of the students and to provide base data against which we measure progress. All children are monitored and challenged through a wide variety of external assessments which include the Early Years Learning Goals, GL Assessments battery, CEM/Durham and subsequently, and more formally iGCSEs and A Levels.
