At Maidstone Grammar School we aim to educate and encourage our pupils to fulfil their abilities. Our pupils not only acquire qualifications that will support their higher education or career ambitions but also leave us as caring and socially responsible global citizens.
To support these goals we offer our pupils teaching and instruction appropriate to their abilities and needs. We seek to draw out from pupils talents that they did not know that they had and lead them on to exploring their potential to the full. Furthermore we work to equip our pupils with the knowledge and moral courage to do what is best for themselves and for the community. Finally we create a safe and happy environment for learning where pupils respect themselves, one another and all members of the community.
Working with parents plays an important part in ensuring pupils achieve their potential; our shared ambitions mean that we can form an effective partnership for the benefit of every child. The advantages of being a large school are evident in the breadth of our academic provision and the range of extracurricular opportunities that we are able to offer. This in turn helps us match individual talents and needs. At the same time our experienced pastoral teams ensure that pupils are treated as individuals not just as part of the crowd.
