The maximum class size is 12. Since we offer 28 different subjects at A Level, Years 12 and 13 classes often contain far fewer students. Small group sizes and personalised support for each student are a key principle of Akademeia.
In line with our approach of being a pre-university university, students are given autonomy over how they dress. However, we are a place of learning and students are expected to dress and behave accordingly.
Our faculty is proudly diverse and contains a mixture of Polish and international teachers, with the highest proportion of our international teachers being British. Our international teachers come from a diverse range of nationalities but are typically grounded in Poland and have mostly been here for a significant period of time. Around a third of our teachers are PHD holders.
Akademeia is an inclusive environment; our Wellbeing Team is extensive and plays a key role in supporting our students with SEN requirements.

Our students typically go on to attend elite universities in the UK, US and Europe.

In addition to our Personal Development Scheme, the school offers students an enviable range of after-school clubs. You can find more information here.
The school operates a thriving Akademeia Parent Association (APA), which plays an important role in supporting and representing our parent community. Parents organise a variety of social and charity events throughout the year and help new families with the transition to our school.
A-Levels allow our students to specialise and go into much greater detail in their chosen subjects, which gives them a better idea about what to study at university and mirrors the specialized focus of university degrees much more. A Levels are also the primary qualification universities in the UK receive for consideration and are internationally respected for students applying to other universities in Europe and in the United States.
The Prep Courses are designed to help students learn the necessary skills and knowledge to succeed if admitted to Akademeia.
