The unique historical resource of the College’s Treasury, libraries, archives
and ancient buildings provide context and meaning to history, Div and the
other Arts subjects.
Experimental work in the laboratories of Science School, and the technical
skills developed in Mill, are a similarly vitally important contextual element of
a pupil’s education in Physics, Chemistry, Biology and Design Technology.
