18 NEW HIGH-SPECIFICATION SCIENCE LABORATORIES

A significant proportion of Shrewsbury International graduates embark on university degrees in scientific and applied fields such as medicine and engineering; indeed, nearly 1 in 7 graduating students successfully applied to medical degree programmes in 2021. 

The Sir David Lees Innovation Centre, will provide our students with the very best preparation for tertiary study with access to highly qualified teachers and a state-of-the-art space to study, to absorb scientific theory and deepen their understanding through practical experiments. Eighteen spacious 120sqm  laboratories, six each dedicated to Chemistry, Biology and Physics,  are fitted with top-of-the-line educational furniture and equipment from S+B Labs - the UK’s leading provider of educational laboratory equipment.

Ms Laura Garcia, Director of Science at Shrewsbury International School Riverside, was instrumental in helping to design the new laboratories and comments: “Science learning spaces should be able to motivate and inspire future scientists by supporting collaborative practice and practical work. As a department, we aim to provide a personalised, inclusive and flexible learning environment adapted for different teaching approaches.” 

With the new modern laboratories, Shrewsbury continues to deliver unparalleled science education culminating in exceptional exam results and university destinations.
 


 

16 MATHEMATICS CLASSROOMS

The study of Mathematics, a cornerstone of Shrewsbury, Riverside’s academic success, embarks on a new chapter with the addition of 16 new classrooms in the Sir David Lees Innovation Centre. 

With each classroom fitted with the latest technology and access to various devices and software, Shrewsbury Mathematics department has the provision, leadership and technology to further develop its record of outstanding and highly-consistent success.  

A high level of proficiency in Mathematics is sought by every top-level university in the world and is regarded as a facilitating subject for many courses. 95% of all Sixth-Form students enrolled at Shrewsbury International, Riverside, take either Mathematics, or both Mathematics and Further Mathematics at A-Level, the demands on the department are always high. With the addition of the new technology-enabled classrooms, success in Mathematics at the school is set to go from strength-to-strength.
 


 

DEDICATED COMPUTING, ROBOTICS & INNOVATION SUITES

One of the most forward-thinking aspects of Shrewsbury’s Sir David Lees Innovation Centre was the creation of four new Computing suites, a Robotics lab and an Innovation space that will bring together these key subject areas all under one roof. 


Students will be introduced to university-like facilities and resources - expertly preparing them for the next phase in their education. Aspiring designers, entrepreneurs and engineers will access the newest technology, helping them to ascend higher than ever before - essentially becoming masters of their own learning. Upon graduation, students will attend universities of their choice, equipped with a solid foundation in creation, exploration and innovation.

4,000 SQM A LEVEL & HIGHER EDUCATION ZONE

The Stephen Holroyd Sixth Form Commons sits on the top two floors of the new Sir David Lees Innovation Centre. Named after the School’s fondly remembered former Principal, the space is dedicated to Year 12 and 13 'A level' students as they prepare for life at leading universities around the world.

The guiding principle behind the design of the Commons was to create a facility that reflects the feel of a university. With stunning views of the Chao Phraya River, the area provides classrooms, breakout and collaboration rooms, Sixth-Form student support offices, dedicated Higher Education support resources, a café,individual and group study areas and a general social space. Staff, students and Higher Education experts were all consulted on the design of this important area within the school.

Shrewsbury, Riverside’s, increased Senior School capacity means we can continue to develop our Outreach and academic enrichment programmes that provide a balance between formal lessons and extracurricular activities. The new Sixth-Form space introduces students to innovative ways of working and encourages them to be the driving force behind their own studies. With the School already providing pathways to the World’s top universities, the Sixth Form ‘space to think’ will enable staff and students to build on the school’s existing success and continue to push ever higher.
