For academic year 2024-25, students who have been awarded academic scholarships in previous years will form the initial cohort of academic scholars. These students will remain academic scholars for the duration of their time at Stamford, unless they opt out of the programme.
From Year 7 in September 2025 onwards, and for new joiners in other year groups from September 2024 onwards, students will be invited to apply for an academic scholarship if they demonstrate the qualities of an academic scholar.
During lessons, all teaching staff have a responsibility to offer extension opportunities. These should not necessarily be limited to academic scholars, and should provide students with opportunities to enhance their knowledge and form links between related ideas.
The plans for the lunchtime academic scholars’ sessions will be published termly by the academic scholars leads. The overview for out-of-school workshops, trips and visits for academic year 2024-25 is below.
