Curriculum
The Falcons School for Girls is an explicitly academic school with a strong commitment to creativity. We seek to develop the skills and talents of every girl, to nurture a belief in the dignity of learning, and to ensure equality of education. The Falcons School for Girls prepare girls for success at 11+ and beyond without compromising or diluting our commitment to creative learning. The Falcons School for Girls believes that learning is effective when pupils are actively involved in the process. We offer pupils a broader vision of education: a commitment to academic excellence realised through focused creativity and personal effort. The school empower girls to become independent learners, encouraging your child to take responsibility for her own learning and develop individual enthusiasms. The Falcons School for Girls believes learning is most effective when it is fun! We promote a creative dimension to learning, drawing on the best in modern educational methodologies - Multiple Intelligences, V.A.K. and digital literacy - whilst maintaining the high expectations associated with ‘traditional' independent school education. The Falcons School for Girls believes that digital learning is transforming the way we teach and learn. We intend to be in the vanguard of IT implementation in the independent sector, raising aspirations and performance throughout all classes and subject areas. We are developing global ‘flat classroom' projects - collaborative lessons that use Web 2.0 technologies such as podcasts, blogs and digital video - to help every girls learn the key twenty-first century skills of communication, collaboration and creation.
