The Curriculum
Academic standards are high and impressive results are achieved across all years in the school. A broad curriculum with an extensive range of GCSEs and A-levels offered.

Exceptional sporting facilities and professional coaching enhance a rich and varied sports programme. The Sports Centre houses a full-sized sports hall, squash courts, gym and dance studio. The 500-seat theatre provides an inspiring home to the vibrant dramatic arts and music departments.
Pastoral Care
Pupils thrive in the calm but purposeful environment. Underpinned by a Christian ethos, which promotes good manners and respect, pupils are given the self-confidence to believe in and express themselves. A dedicated team of staff work in partnership with parents to help all students achieve their potential.
University Places
Individual guidance and support ensures a high success rate for placing pupils at their first choice universities.
Principal’s Philosophy
St Lawrence has a long record of providing an excellent academic education within a supportive community, but is also modern in its outlook and well suited to preparing pupils for a rapidly changing world. Students leave as confident, compassionate and capable adults.
Outstanding Characteristics
We are deliberately a medium-sized school – small enough to ensure that individual pupils receive the attention and care they require, but large enough to provide outstanding facilities, and with a reputation for punching well above our weight in school competitions!
