Acland Burghley School provides a rich and stimulating education for boys and girls aged 11 to 19. We believe passionately in the potential of each young person and work together with families to ensure that every student succeeds. High-quality learning is at the heart of our school. We prioritize high academic standards, supporting students of all abilities to excel in English, Maths, and Science, and across a broad curriculum. We encourage our learners to be independent thinkers with a broad worldview. Our emphasis on creativity is about developing the thinkers and innovators of the future. Our curriculum offers a wide variety of opportunities for students to participate in the arts and sport, and to play a part in community life. We are a member of the highly successful LaSWAP sixth form consortium, together with three other local schools. The combined strengths of all four schools offer our sixth form students the widest range of opportunities, expertise, and resources. Every student is given information, advice, and guidance to find an ambitious and successful pathway to the future. Above all, we are a friendly, happy school. The Acland Burghley School Trust is a charity set up by parents and governors to raise extra funds for the school. Funding for any extras schools want to provide has shrunk leaving a real gap to fill at Acland Burghley. The Acland Burghley School Trust offers a very concrete way to support the school’s vision of developing talent and achieving the highest possible success for every student. View full school
