Highsted Grammar School

Sittingbourne

School Description

Highsted Grammar School is a small girls’ grammar school (around 900 on roll, including 182 in Sixth Form) situated in the North Kent town of Sittingbourne. We were one of the first to convert to academy status in the autumn term 2010.

The school is a high-performing girls’ school, where pastoral care and enrichment feature as highly as academic success. Having featured three times in Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector’s list of outstanding schools, we are proud to play a leading role in the education of young people in our area. The pupils are exceptional in every way – they are enthusiastic, personable, caring, and show considerable initiative – and we enjoy the strong support of parents. Likewise, the staff team – teaching, support and administrative – is talented, dedicated, hard-working and committed to the continuing success of the school.

‘Pupils and students flourish and succeed at Highsted Grammar.’

‘Pupils are courteous, polite and welcoming – they are happy, safe and well cared for’.
