Putney is a high achieving but down to earth school that offers incredible opportunity through a curriculum that is ‘academic with a very modern edge’
Modern Scholarship
Our ethos of ‘modern scholarship’ makes learning challenging, fun and relevant, allowing students to discover the thrill of intellectual endeavour while building the agile mindset and transferable skills that will prepare them for the future world of work.
They learn to be intellectually agile and entrepreneurial, applying multi-disciplinary knowledge, for example, through a bespoke course in design thinking. They go on to earn sought-after places at top universities and on competitive Degree Apprenticeships, such as in Software Engineering with the likes of Goldman Sachs.
