Scholarship
We remain committed to academic rigour and breadth, delivered by expert teachers within a rich, supportive learning environment. Our results are evidence of this. Loughborough Grammar School is a top independent school in Leicestershire, with 45% achieving grades A*/A at A Level.
our goals:
We continually review what, how and why we teach, focusing on stretch and challenge, equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI), and powerful cross-curricular connections.
We draw on the latest research and adaptive teaching practices to ensure lessons meet the needs of all learners.
We use research-based methods proven to enhance progress, giving every pupil the opportunity to develop habits of independence, curiosity and self-motivation.
We recognise that each subject has its own unique language and ways of knowing, doing and communicating. Our focus on disciplinary literacy helps pupils think, communicate and enquire like scholars.
Innovation
We are outward-looking, future-focused and ready to embrace change where it benefits learning.
our goals:
Informed by cognitive science, our approach prioritises engagement, curiosity and deep understanding.
From our diverse community to global partnerships and iGCSE Global Perspectives, we prepare boys to thrive in an interconnected world.
Preparing pupils for the real world, our personal development programme empowers boys to develop critical thinking, creativity and innovation, enabling them to offer new perspectives on market opportunities and social issues.
We harness emerging technologies in a balanced, purposeful way, including teaching skills such as prompt engineering, to ensure our pupils lead the future rather than follow it.
Individual Growth
Pastoral care is at the heart of everything we do, not just for wellbeing, but as the foundation of good character.
our goals:
Our proactive approach to pastoral care, Personal, Social, Health and Economic education (PSHE), co-curricular activities and wellbeing is carefully coordinated to support individual growth.
We celebrate individuality and ensure every boy is known, understood and valued, helping them develop confidence, character and compassion.
With over 160 clubs, music, drama, sport, Combined Cadet Force (CCF) and more, boys have the opportunity to try new things, pursue their passions and grow as people.
Social Responsibility
We develop principled young men who not only succeed but also give back.
our goals:
Through our student leadership model, we equip pupils to lead with integrity in school and beyond.
We build strong, mutually beneficial partnerships with maintained schools, local charities, universities and businesses.
Through volunteering, charitable work and environmental awareness, pupils live out our founding mission by making meaningful contributions and serving others.
