Departments
Classrooms should be exploratory and imaginative places, full of open-mindedness, trust, and humour.
Canford offers a broad and balanced curriculum. There are twenty one core academic subjects available and most pupils choose to take ten subjects at GCSE. In the Lower Sixth pupils usually choose four subjects to study at AS level and three in more depth for the Upper Sixth year.
