The Approach
‘The atmosphere at d'Overbroeck's is welcoming, friendly and informal. Above all, there's a mood of enthusiasm and energy; independence and confidence; tolerance and openness.
‘The whole classroom culture is invigoratingly different: lively, expressive, dynamic. Students share their opinions and respect those of others.
‘Our hope is that – as a Sixth Former at d'Overbroeck's – you'll experience just the right blend of exhilarating independence and supportive guidance.’
— Sami Cohen, d'Overbroeck's Principal
A place of energy and laughter
‘Quite possibly the leading independent sixth form in the UK ... It's a place of energy and laughter, of single-minded determination among students to do the best they can. And d'Overbroeck's does not let them down.’
The Good Schools Guide, 2008
Treating students as individuals
‘It's an incredibly original school – one of few that treats students as individuals and develops them in every way they can. [Being at d'Overbroeck's] was probably the best experience of my life.’
Ray Wyand, former student
