School Organisation

The Latham School offers an international British curriculum examinable by the University of Cambridge. We ensure that we meet all their curriculum requirements. At the same time, we are committed to providing a broad-based education and creating and maintaining a safe, happy and child-centred environment in which children are inspired to become purposeful life-long learners. In line with Cambridge International Education our curriculum is organised into key stages.

  • Reception Class
  • Years 1 – 2: Key Stage 1
  • Years 3 – 6: Key Stage 2
In subsequent years:

  • Years 10 - 11: Key Stage 4
  • Years 12 - 13: Key Stage 5
