Academic Excellence
A pathway to the world’s best university
Over the years we have built an exceptional track record of successes in university placement, based on outstanding grades and bespoke counselling support.
Personalised guidance, privileged access
We ensure that all students achieve their academic potential, plus develop the personal attributes and build the experiences that improve their university and career opportunities. Each year many students graduate from the Harrow family of schools to take up places at Oxford, Cambridge and Ivy League universities, as well as the best universities in Asia.
While many schools adopt a ‘one size fits all’ approach to university guidance, all our HISs offer a dedicated University Admissions and Careers Guidance Centre. The students are expertly supported in their university applications by their subject teachers, tutors, University Guidance Counsellors and the Head of Sixth Form. This team know the students well in order to advise and mentor them. All students have access to dedicated Guidance staff during their study periods, after school and during their lunchtimes. During the year, a wide range of universities visit the school, from Harvard University, US to the University of Cambridge, UK. The aim of university visits is for students to engage with universities so that they develop an idea of what a best fit university looks like for them.
