Welcome to Key Stage 3 (Years 7, 8 and 9)

Key Stage 3 (Years 7 to 9) at POWIIS is thoughtfully designed to support a smooth and confident transition from primary school, while laying strong foundations for success in the IGCSE programme in Key Stage 4.

Our students benefit from a broad and balanced international curriculum that encourages curiosity, independence and the development of individual strengths. Alongside their academic journey, students are invited to take part in a vibrant array of activities beyond the classroom, ranging from sports and the performing arts to debating, community service and outdoor learning. These diverse experiences help students to grow as well-rounded individuals and make informed choices as they progress through the school and into future pathways.

Each KS3 student is supported by a dedicated form tutor who provides daily guidance and is the first point of contact for parents. This pastoral care is further strengthened by the Head of Key Stage and Deputy Head, our full-time university and careers counsellor, and our social-emotional school counselling team.

Students who are still developing their English language skills receive tailored support to help them integrate smoothly and confidently into all areas of school life.
