It recognises and celebrates pupil achievement across and beyond the curriculum, co-curriculum and supercurriculum (wherein pupils extend their learning through academic clubs and societies, competitions and independent research), incentivising engagement, participation and application. The Diploma programme enables our pupils to develop many of the personal attributes beyond the academic curriculum that are important for their development, it raises expectations of all pupils and prepares them for their continuing education as they start GCSE courses, A Levels and, later, the world beyond Brighton.
