Academics

The Buckswood School curriculum is based on the Georgian National Curriculum, as well as the unique traditions of the British school system and European educational innovations.

The teaching approach combines the use of age-appropriate modern methods, such as VR and AR technologies, the flipped classroom principle, project-based learning, debates, role-playing / simulation games and more.

·       One of Buckswood's main innovations is the replacement of the traditional class concept with the principle of "subject classes", which involves the distribution of students in the upper grades (grades VII-XII) in all subject areas with different composition. Students are divided into mathematics and English according to their academic achievements, in sports – according to the desired type, and in all other subject groups – based on the house-membership, number and gender balance. This scheme of variable and mixed groups ensures the active socialization of students and the development of skills for rapid adaptation to the new environment, which is one of the most necessary and in-demand competencies of the 21st century.
