From its small beginnings in 2001 Northfields now has over 430 students.[1][2] Academic ProgrammeNorthfields offers three stages of education, namely
In the first three years students are assisted in making the quantum leap from primary school as well as being exposed to various new subjects. The middle year program is focused on ensuring the students are successful in passing their first external qualification, the International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) at the end of the two-year program. This is an internationally recognised qualification. Students are required to take 8 subjects at the examination and besides the core subjects, Maths, English first language and French second language, they are also offered the sciences, social sciences, design technology, ICT and physical education. NIS will continue to introduce subjects that are relevant to our region and in September 2010 introduced environmental management. Cambridge International A levels Examinations are an internationally accepted university entrance qualification and is offered to students who wish to specialise and who, in the opinion of the School, can achieve success in following this route. The International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (“IBDP”) is an internationally accepted university entrance qualification and is sat at the end of the final two-year course. Students are required to take six subjects and these are selected from the eight subjects that they write at IGCSE. BoardingIn August 2017, Northfields inaugurated the new boarding school which is a ‘home away from home’ for the community of young people who live there—all Northfields students, aged between 13 and 18 years old. The weekly routine helps the boarders strike a balance between academic and leisure pursuits, and enables them to engage fully in the learning programme offered at Northfields, as well as in boarding life. The boarders have a structured routine to help them maintain a healthy balance by ensuring they get enough sleep, have scheduled study times and manage their use of technology. Northfields Boarding goal is for boarders to learn to manage their time and grow in personal responsibility, preparing them for life after school.
