Senior School

The key focus of our Senior department is to give you the freedom and the opportunity to develop into the true individual you are.

At Bridgewater School, we believe that exam results are an end product of an outstanding, rounded education rather than an end to themselves. Which is why discovering the future potential and core capabilities of every individual whist enabling everyone to enjoy a rich and varied array of group and team activities, has been the cornerstone of our success.

Our students are successful and achieve their personal best because they study a broad and challenging curriculum in a stable, happy and reassuring environment and have the opportunity to discover talents both within and beyond the classroom.

Making friends and making progress.

From Day One, you will find yourself making friends in a stimulating environment with an inspirational curriculum and specialist teaching designed to bring out the very best in you.

Your form teacher will take a keen interest in your progress and activities, providing the support and mentoring you need. While our pastoral care is dedicated to building up a close knowledge of who you are as a person.

Bringing more to your education.

What we will bring to your education is a clear recognition of your unique attributes. Importantly, we see making mistakes as a fundamental part of the learning process, so our assignments will challenge you in a positive way and give you the confidence to experiment, explore and improvise.

What you will bring to your education is curiosity, enthusiasm, a willingness to learn and the ability to relate to those around you and adapt positively to change. Together, we will discover what your favourite options are, as you develop your true academic potential and the life skills that will successfully see you through to your GCSEs and beyond.
