Departments
Prince William School itself is broken into different specialised blocks such as:-
The Sutton Maths Department is located at the back of the school, near the soccer courts, the Drama studio and the Science Block.
The Science Department lies near the centre of the school, leading directly from the Courtyard or the Maths block. It, obviously, is a department devoted to the scientific studies.
The Drama Studio is located behind gates that lead out towards the Science mobiles (S12-S14). It is a dedicated room for the theatrical arts.
The Humanities Department is located in the rear of the campus. It is home to seven classrooms, in these rooms, Religious Education, History and Geography are taught.
The Design Department is located nearby the Humanities block, as well as the Gym changing rooms. It is home to several different subjects related to design, which include, but are not limited to, Graphic Design, Fine Arts, Textiles and Resistant Materials.
The English Department is located at the very front of the school, visible immediately after entering the campus, to the left. .
The Languages Department is located on the floor above the English Department. It contains rooms L1 to L7 and a range of languages is taught here.
The new mobiles are placed near the drama studio, and teach Religious Education and Psychology.
Exam results
With sixth form taking A level exams, and Year 11 and 10 taking GCSE's, many tests are taken to see how everyone is doing. In 2007, about 69% of year 11 passed all the GCSE's they took, which is higher than quite a few of the private schools around Oundle which supposedly get better results.
Notable alumni
- Himesh Patel, actor
- Benjamin Russel, rugby player
Other information
- The school uses the website to allow students to do work at home by getting it off of the VLE or Virtual Learning Environment, which they have just improved to a newer, quicker version. See it below.
