The Faulkner Curriculum
Since September 2023, Bradfield college has been running its updated Faulkner curriculum for Year 9 students. This framework meets the needs of modern life while maintaining academic rigor. Its approach combines formal skill development with creative assessment methods, helping students transition smoothly from prep school while building independence. The curriculum targets five core competencies:
- Presents, teaches, and formally assesses skills valued in today’s workforce
- Continues to pursue learning in an academically tough environment
- Evaluates students through creative and new methods
- Teaches students to work on their own and well
- Facilitates a smooth yet tough transition from preparatory school
These include complex problem-solving, self-regulation, presentation skills, computer skills, and critical thinking.
Years 10 and 11
During this time, students usually take eight to ten classes. Core areas cover sciences, English, and foreign languages, forming the foundation of their qualifications. For certain areas like music, the school offers its own SBS course rather than the standard GCSE route, providing an alternative pathway that suits different learning approaches.
Sixth Form at Bradfield college
At this stage, students choose between the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) and the linear A Level route with an Extended Project Qualification. The IB path requires six subjects at varying levels, alongside Theory of Knowledge, an Extended Essay, and CAS components. Those pursuing A Levels select three subjects—potentially four if Further Maths appeals—and complete their EPQ. Both pathways offer diverse subject choices that accommodate different academic interests and future ambitions.
