The Academic Curriculum

HAWI6 is, first a foremost, an academic institution. Students study a rigorous curriculum of either three A Levels and an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ), or four A Levels. The subjects* we will be offering from September 2025 are:

Please see our subject prospectus for more information: Subject Prospectus  

Alongside their lessons, A Level students must engage in a significant amount of independent study. As such, the HAWI6 timetable is designed to allow students enough time for both the taught curriculum and independent work. A student’s week might look like the below example timetable: 

Time	Monday	Tuesday	Wednesday	Thursday	Friday
8.25am	Tutor time	Tutor time	Subject Society	Assembly	Tutor time
9.00am	Subject 1	Independent Study	EPQ	Subject 2	Subject 1

Students have nine lessons a fortnight in each core A Level subject, and six lessons a fortnight for the EPQ. Depending on the number of A Levels they are studying, each student in Year 12 will have between six and nine independent study periods a fortnight. In Year 13 this will increase to eight to eleven study periods a fortnight.
