Facilities

The facilities of Stamford School are interwoven into the landscape of the town. Our sites sit on 60 acres of land, 20 of which are sports pitches at the St Paul’s site, and 15 acres at Stamford Junior School. Our property portfolio is well balanced, with older historic buildings that are part of our learning tapestry, to modern, contemporary sports centres that represent our focus for the future. Home to over 1,600 students, our facilities offer extensive opportunities for our students and wider community.
