Bangor Grammar School is an all-boys inter-denominational, voluntary grammar school. Our core aims of Excellence, Community, and Opportunity are encapsulated in everything that we do and add value for all of our pupils. The teaching and non-teaching staff are a positive, hard-working, and dedicated group of people who work tirelessly for the betterment of the pupils and the School in general, making it a happy and positive environment to be part of.
We are privileged to enjoy a modern, state-of-the-art building on the Gransha Road, full of light and color and with spaces that foster our strong sense of community and collective pride. It is large, but at the same time, coherent and compact, warm and welcoming.
Our School provides high quality of learning and teaching at all levels positive friendly and productive relationships are fostered between staff and pupils and opportunities for the boys to develop intellectually, morally, emotionally, spiritually, imaginatively, and creatively are actively encouraged. We strongly believe our vision that Bangor Grammar School should be one of the leading all boys’ grammar schools in Northern Ireland, where each pupil achieves success and develops into a well-rounded, confident, and articulate individual. Through our strong pastoral system, we support and value every single boy and seek to draw from him the best of which he is capable.
The relationship between parents and the School is a vital one in ensuring that your son engages with all School has to offer, whether that be curricular or extra-curricular. Support at home will better allow him to develop the many qualities and skills necessary for success in today’s workplace. More importantly, it will better guarantee that he reaches his full potential.
We aspire to be a school in which a pupil:
- Is enabled to achieve the best of which he is capable in both academic work and extra-curricular activities
- Is ambitious and sets high expectations for himself
- Develops a critical, curious, and independent mind
- Makes a wholehearted commitment to the pursuit of greater knowledge and understanding
- Leaves as a mature, grounded, and responsible person equipped to adapt successfully to the ever-changing circumstances of the world of work
