Many of DBS students go on to study at prestigious Universities across the world.

The secondary curriculum at DBS is at the cutting edge of the English National Curriculum and is reviewed and refined annually. The curriculum goes significantly beyond the minimum expectations and DBS offers one of the broadest range of subjects and courses from Year 7 through to Year 13. Our curriculum is underpinned by the ‘DBS Ways’ and embodies our whole school approach to character education, providing a deep and rich experience for all.

At DBS, students are stretched and challenged and the school makes no apologies for expecting the highest standards in terms of behaviour, discipline and attitudes towards all members of the school community. The high standards expected means the school offers an exhilarating and challenging learning environment where the students and staff feel safe, happy and valued.
