學校簡介及申請須知:
Uppingham School 所在的小鎮比較細,學生人數亦較少,只有782人,歷史亦較短。或者是細及相對年輕,所以更能捉住時代的觸角。
Uppingham 就是讓學生學到盡,體驗到盡。設計及生活上更著重學生感受及帶領學生去做好每件事。學習上要求學生為自我而活,不强制學生做好所有科目,但要學生找到喜愛的學科再努力研究。活動上不停設計及創造新的機會給學生更多體驗,部分活動以星期為基礎,不要求學生完成整個學期,只為讓學生盡情體驗數以十計的活動。設施及設備上,亦以大學模式設立,為培育未來的科學、學者。
”學以至用,貢獻社會” 是Uppingham School 對教學的基本理念,相信來到學校參觀的家長將會深深體驗到Uppingham school 是全英國最難申請學校之一,更重要是學校要早於year 6 就面試 year 9 入學的申請,任何遲於這個時間的申請都可以只會跌到waiting list,奉勸家長及學生請及早準備。
