Accreditations and Memberships

Research from leading institutions shows that IB students are more likely than their peers to succeed in higher education. The IB supports schools and teachers to provide a rigorous, high-quality education, offering professional development that improves pedagogy and leadership. IB programmes challenge students to excel in their studies and encourage both personal and academic achievement. They aim to do more than other curricula by developing inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who are motivated to succeed. More than 4,000 schools worldwide teach IB programmes. In addition to being a fully-accredited IB Diploma provider (DP), Renaissance is also a candidate school* for both the Primary Years Programme (PYP) and Middle Years Programme (MYP), having already had our initial applications approved in June 2022. Our school is pursuing authorization as an IB World School. IB World Schools share a common philosophy – a commitment to high-quality, challenging, international education – that we believe is important for our students.

Renaissance follows the National Curriculum for England, which sets out the programmes of study and attainment targets for all subjects in most year groups in Primary and Secondary.  The curriculum is structured into four  Stages (for students aged 5 – 16), for each of which certain subjects must be taught. The National Curriculum aims to support the statutory duties of schools to offer a curriculum which is balanced and broadly based.
