As one of the leading independent schools in the North West, richness, through breadth of experience and depth of study, is our goal. At Rydal Penrhos School you will find a broad and balanced learning programme which caters for a wide range of abilities and interests. We care for the individual and are able to tailor the curriculum to suit diverse needs.
Our curriculum also allows for increasing choice and specialisation as pupils move through the school. In the Sixth Form we offer two separate qualification types: A-levels and the International Baccalaureate Diploma (the ‘IB’). We aim to engender a love of learning and an ability to study independently. These are life skills which will live with our pupils long after they have left school.Mr Julian Noad
