About Burnham Grammar School
We are a caring school where exceptional relationships are fostered and every student is valued as an individual. We get to know our students to enable us to personalise the support they need to fulfil their potential. Our friendly but purposeful environment produces both excellent examination results and well-rounded individuals who are proud to be members of our community.
With 61 first languages spoken by students and three times as many students in receipt of Pupil Premium as any of the other Bucks Grammar Schools our student body is extremely diverse and atypical of grammar schools. The quality of our inclusion work with SEND and disadvantaged students was recognised by the school achieving the Inclusion Quality Mark in 2022 and being made a National Centre of Excellence by the organisation.
The sense of community and teamwork is palpable and valued by staff. Retaining the Investors in People (IIP) Gold award, being made an IIP Champion for the South East of England and the Wellbeing Award in 2021 highlights the priority we put on developing and looking after staff whilst continually searching for ways to make practice more efficient to enable a work life balance.
As highlighted in our Ofsted report of December 2022 we have high expectations of our students and involve them in decisions about all key developments in the school.
Burnham Grammar School is an idyllic learning community where the relationships and teamwork between staff and students are exceptional and provide the support and reassurance for our students to strive to be their very best.
