There’s something special about the first week of term – new faces, fresh energy, and the excitement of a new start. On Monday, we were delighted to welcome students, both new and returning to Collingham for the beginning of the September term. The atmosphere around the school has been buzzing all week.
A Variety of Pathways: GCSE and A Level Courses in Kensington
We’ve loved welcoming our new students this term. Some are beginning their A Level courses, others have joined for one-year GCSE courses, and many are combining subjects to create their own personalised programme. That’s the beauty of Collingham – no two journeys are ever the same.
What’s also been brilliant to see is the mix of interests. From sciences and humanities to the creative arts, our students are exploring a huge variety of subjects. Whatever their individual goals, everyone is supported to find their path, with expert teaching and encouragement along the way.
The Power of Small Classes
At Collingham, our small classes – averaging just five students – make a huge difference. It’s only the first week, but tutors are already tailoring lessons to individual learning styles, helping students feel confident to ask questions and really engage with their studies. The impact of that personal attention has been clear from day one.
Flexible Entry Points Throughout the Year
We also understand that life doesn’t always follow a linear academic timeline. That’s why Collingham offers flexible entry points throughout the year. Whether a student needs to retake exams, change schools, or simply start fresh, we can design a programme that fits their needs.
This flexibility makes us one of the leading independent schools in London, trusted by families who want an education that adapts to the student – not the other way around.
If you’re reading this thinking a change might be right for you, don’t forget, it’s never too late to join us. Get in touch to find out how Collingham could be the fresh start you’re looking for.
