Book for our Discovery Mornings

Discovery Mornings are a chance to explore the Schools on a normal working day.

You and your family will tour the School in the company of one of our pupils and will meet the Principal and senior team over tea and coffee.

Junior School (Reception – Year 6):
Wednesday 15 May 8.45am – 10am

Senior School (Year 7 – Year 11):
Wednesday 15 May 10am – 11.30am

Spaces at a Discovery Morning are limited so that you can have as much time as you need to see the School at your own pace and discuss your child as an individual.

    About Us

    At Stamford we have been educating students since 1532. 

    Academically, our focus is on thinking and communicating creatively, and collaborating with others to solve complex problems. 

    Teamwork is at the heart of all we do, encouraging students to bring out the best in others and allowing every single student to thrive in our kind, inclusive and welcoming community.

    In our modern teaching spaces, our students learn in an environment designed to develop and further their intellectual curiosity, as well as their practical and social development. 

    We want our students to be determined, hard-working and eager to get involved with everything we offer.  We enable them to grasp each and every opportunity, and to be the very best they can be both in and out of the classroom. 

    Within a sound framework of pastoral care and continuous development, Stamfordians are filled with the skills and confidence to face the future as rounded and grounded young adults.

    At Stamford we give every student opportunities to thrive; and while our Schools have a long and prestigious heritage, everything we do now is focused on preparing young people to lead happy and fulfilling lives in the 21st Century.

    Our Ethos

    Every student is encouraged to be an independent thinker.

    Every student at Stamford, from Nursery through to Sixth Form, is encouraged to be an independent thinker and to have the opportunity to thrive, to help them become the best version of themselves.

    Ethos
    Learning at Stamford

    A broad curriculum, coupled with attentive and enthusiastic teaching, provides an environment in which young minds are stimulated and developed. 

    Curriculum
    Beyond the classroom

    There are trips around the world to widen cultural horizons and regular field trips to bring subjects to life. 

    There is an extensive range of co-curricular activities, from CCF and debating, to photography and cooking, which promote a love of learning beyond the academic programme.
