Book now to attend the Stockport Grammar Junior School open event on May 11
Staff and students at Stockport Grammar School are celebrating after receiving a glowing report from the Independent Schools Inspectorate, following its inspection in November 2023.
The report begins by describing the school as a “vibrant and welcoming community” where children are “happy and thriving”, going on to say that pupils “feel safe and well supported by the adults around them” due to the well developed and caring pastoral system at SGS. Pupils in SGS’s junior school are provided with “a strong foundation” in speaking, listening, literacy and numeracy skills. Meanwhile, junior school children benefit from being taught by specialist teachers in several subject areas, including foreign languages, music, dance and PE.
Over 200 extra-curricular activities The report also noted that staff and governors at the school understand that academic performance - while vitally important - is not the sole purpose of education, saying: “School leaders recognise that recreation is fundamental to pupils’ wellbeing and provide ample space for pupils to socialise and be physically and cerebrally active.”
Excelling in the arts The arts have a special place in the life of SGS too, with an incredible array of opportunities for pupils to throw themselves into, across music, drama, dance and art.
