Learning
The Davenies Curriculum is independent and forward-thinking. By going beyond the National Curriculum and incorporating the best of the Independent Schools Examination Board syllabus, we can provide a bespoke curriculum that enables us to offer academic excellence alongside an extensive educational experience. Our enthusiastic, friendly and well-qualified staff deliver a broad and balanced education through a combination of traditional and modern teaching methods involving both class-based and specialist teaching.
Subjects
The Head of Department for each subject area ensures that an up-to-date and challenging curriculum is delivered to all Davenies pupils. Ongoing assessment is relevant and pupil progress is tracked to inform future teaching and learning goals.
At Davenies, we believe that the learning process must Engage, Inspire and Challenge every child that attends. Teaching and learning is supported by a wide range of resources and Co-Curricular Activities. The ethos and values that are inherent to the School support and enhance enthusiasm for lifelong learning and encourage independence of thought. The boys develop self-esteem, a wide range of knowledge, essential communication skills and the drive to enhance and excel in education.

Scholarships and Exhibitions
Academic endeavour is at the heart of every Davenies education. All pupils are expected to work hard and take advantage of the opportunities presented and available to them. Pupils that demonstrate excellent or exceptional academic ability, however, are offered an Academic Scholarship or Exhibition in Years 7 and 8.
Exhibitions are also available for those boys who show tremendous potential in Academic, Music, Sport, Art or Drama and Design & Technology. Successful candidates will be automatically enrolled on our Scholars’ Programme that aims to help boys excel within their specific talents.
