King Solomon International Business School is a Primary, Secondary and Sixth Form school located in Birmingham, England, on the old site of Waterlinks House; opening in 2015. It is a multi-denominational Christian school, although it takes in students of any faith or no faith. It is a 'through school', catering for pupils of any gender between the ages of 4 and 19.[1]
The school is part of the Woodard family of Christian schools (Woodard Schools), and also belongs to the Excell3 group.[2]
The School
The school offers a curriculum for Primary, Secondary and Sixth form (GSCE and A Level). It also offers the International Baccalaureate.[3] The school's specialism is in International Business and Enterprise and works with international firms to ensure that pupils 'develop skills aligned to the changing business needs of the 21st century'.[4]
The National Curriculum is followed throughout the school. At Key Stage 4, students follow a core GCSE curriculum but have the option to take vocational subjects as well. The school year is extended with a five-week break in Summer instead of the UK standard six.
