Our Family of Schools

The Wakefield Grammar School Foundation numbers amongst the country’s leading families of independent day schools. An education at our three schools is different in many ways but at the heart of it all, there is one guiding ethos which defines everything we do, academically, socially and ethically. We call it The Wakefield Way.

My husband and I believe that sending our daughters to Wakefield Girls’ High School has been the best investment we have ever made.

My daughter absolutely loves everything about the school. Older girls are great role models. Class sizes are quite small and teachers have a lot more time to spend 1 to 1 with the girls. Teachers are backed up by Teaching Assistants. The school has been spot on for my daughter.

Our boys have both been incredibly privileged to have had the best Junior School experience. For both of our boys to have had such happy times where they have thrived and made lifelong friends, then these years have really been priceless!
