Academic scholars are extended in their lessons and set a more challenging curriculum to prepare them for the demands of school life beyond St Peter’s.
We expect our scholars to demonstrate a consistently high standard in classwork, in prep and in examinations. In addition, we expect scholars to display curiosity and undertake independent study to broaden both their subject and general knowledge.
Successful academic scholars can enjoy leadership roles on faculty days, STEM opportunities, interview preparation sessions with relevant faculty leads, mentoring in a chosen discipline, access to extracurricular Future Schools academic preparatory sessions, access to further language study such as Latin and Italian, and a visiting speakers lecture programme.
Academic Scholarships are open to applicants from within or outside the School and are awarded on academic merit and potential.
The assessments for academic awards for internal pupils are the St Peter’s School Baccalaureate® Summer Term exams. Pupils joining from primary schools will not be required to sit a Science paper. Applicants will also have an interview with the Head. Dr Rowan Evans will be happy to answer any questions you may have prior to the scholarship day (rowan.evans@stpetersprepschool.co.uk).
