Stamford Schools

Team, Fire, Spirit

At Stamford, we stand by three words: Team, Fire, Spirit. We use the word team to describe the principle of support; fire to describe opportunity; and spirit to describe individuality. It is from these values that we derive the aims of our schools. To find out more about our aims and objectives click the link below:

Why Stamford?

What is a Stamfordian?

Stamfordians are independent, thoughtful, intelligent, lively and curious. They work hard and achieve their dreams – safe in the knowledge that every one of us at Stamford, from teachers, parents, Old Stamfordians and fellow pupils will support that dream and cheer them on.

Since being at Stamford, our daughter’s confidence has grown steadily, and she has thrived upon the environment both in its excellent academic content and teaching methods, inspiring her to learn and the wider, supportive, pastoral engagement with the students by members of staff.”

Parent Stamford High School

I’ve enjoyed everything about Stamford – from the friends I’ve made for life to my engaging lessons. I have made some very fond memories, with huge events such as Hairspray all the way down to little things such as walking between sites with friends. I will really miss the Sixth Form and the wonderful friendly atmosphere of the school.”

Boarding Student Recent Leaver

The ethos of the school is that of a forward thinking rounded education of character and mind. My children are encouraged to develop their own capabilities through a range of experiences, activities, taught lessons, collaborative projects and challenges.”
