We believe in providing our pupils with a challenging and stimulating learning environment. The curriculum is planned and delivered with the aim of allowing all pupils, regardless of age, gender, ethnic group or ability, the opportunity to achieve their very best. Pupils at Malet Lambert usually work in a year group according to their age but setting and enrichment programmes for individual pupils enable them to move through programmes of study as quickly as their ability allows.
