Aylesbury

Aylesbury Grammar School has a long history of inspiring and nurturing our young people to explore for themselves who they want to be and find their place in the world. The value of education and the strength of character of the next generation has never been greater. We are expertly placed to enable our students to flourish academically whilst also ensuring they are well-equipped to understand and meet the challenges they face with empathy and humility. Through knowing and understanding each individual, not just through their academic achievements, our students flourish in all they do. The School is committed to a culture of innovative learning and achievement through our pioneering expertise, an uncompromised curriculum and life-enriching opportunities across both curricular and extra-curricular activities, all within an extraordinarily caring and supportive environment. Our history of nearly 425 years is celebrated in all aspects of school life, none more so than in our House system which provides a sense of ownership, belonging and a healthy level of competition and camaraderie. Aylesburians are, for many years to come, loyal to their school with many returning to celebrate at Old Aylesburian events, adding to their sense of identity and growth through achievement the School brings throughout their lives. We hope you get a sense of what it means to learn and be part of our community and how we might be the right place for your son to nurture his character.

As the only Church of England secondary school in this area, we offer something very special: a long tradition of a high quality education which develops the personality and talents of every child in our care. The school is open to everyone and you do not have to go to Church to apply for admission.

We provide a stimulating learning environment where all children can achieve, whatever their ability or aptitude. All students are valued as individuals and all flourish in a community that lives by the Christian values of love, compassion and respect for each other. We uphold the traditional values of good manners and hard work and have high expectations of all our students. Our teaching encourages independent learning and provides students with those skills and qualities which they need to take them through the 21st century. We instil a love of learning and offer a wealth of cultural, social and sporting activities through which your child can find and develop new interests and skills. I look forward to welcoming you and your son or daughter into our lively and thriving community.

We offer an exceptional academic and extracurricular experience at Samuel Whitbread Academy in an outstanding learning environment where students are expected to work hard and achieve their best. In our last Ofsted inspection, we were judged as ‘Good’ with many outstanding features and over the next three years we have set ourselves the target of being Outstanding! Our GCSE results are amongst the best in the local authority. We offer a well-balanced curriculum with plenty of choice to prepare our students for the next stage in their lives. Most of our students continue on to the Sixth Form, which is one of the largest and highest performing in the area - providing students with a huge range of courses designed to match the expectations of universities and employers. Our pastoral care is exceptional and we have dedicated pastoral support teams for each year group. The academy is also broken down into five houses, named after people who have made a distinctive contribution to our community. These provide the framework for the multitude of different competitions, celebrations and charity events that bring our school community together during the year. Extracurricular opportunity is a vital part of our ethos and we expect all of our students to get involved in at least one club or activity. There are a huge number of opportunities ranging from highly competitive sports teams to spectacular drama and musical performances. We enjoy showing visitors around the school so please take the opportunity to come and see us during the school day, so you can see the school in action and we can answer any questions you may have. We look forward to seeing you.
