From the Stanwix School
Thanks for visiting the Stanwix School website. We hope you find the information it contains both interesting and informative, and that it communicates the vibrant, happy learning experience that our school offers. For almost 130 years, the large, effective school Stanwix has been assisting in the development of young Cumbrians into contented, healthy teens. We recently received the OfSted designation of "Good." Our English, Math, and Science three-year average attainment easily places us in the top 10% of the best-performing schools in the entire UK. Stanwix pupils benefit from an academic curriculum filled with interest for every child, matched with opportunities to develop the creative and social skills essential to become inspired young people. We aim to combine pleasure in learning with a traditional academic approach that instills an appreciation of the value of knowledge and a life-long love of learning that will provide a solid foundation for your child's successful future through secondary school and into higher education and the adult world. An robust programme of after-school activities that broadens horizons and nurtures individual interests runs parallel to the basic disciplines. We have regular parents' evenings and open events when you can visit the school, my teachers and I are also happy to meet with parents and prospective parents and their children by arrangement. If you would like to visit the school or have any queries that aren't answered by this website or our prospectus, don't be afraid to get in touch with the school.
