Welcome to Huddersfield Grammar School

We are a highly successful independent school in Yorkshire, providing a future-facing curriculum for the next generation of leaders. Our academic results are exceptional, with a focus on pupil wellbeing and character development at the heart of all we do.

Set in beautiful grounds, we provide children from ages 3-16 a caring, supportive environment in which to learn. Children are inspired from the very beginning of their educational journey in Nursery and Reception, and this continues right through the Pre-Preparatory, Preparatory and Senior School.

Huddersfield Grammar School offers academic stretch and an enviable co-curricular programme. We are renowned for our rich vein of kindness and inclusivity. We encourage our pupils to work hard, aspire to high academic standards and we delight in watching them become fully-rounded members of the school and community.

Character development

When children leave school, they should be equipped with the skills they need to be the best version of themselves. Today’s working world is a challenging one, and it’s crucial to develop a child’s character through teaching transferable skills that will help them to thrive in the future and beyond the classroom.

Wellbeing & Support

Academic quality

We are extremely proud to consistently achieve results that are far beyond the national average at every school stage – from Key Stage 2 results exceeding national averages by over 15% to quality GCSE outcomes at 23% higher than national results.

Academic Excellence

Future-focused curriculum

Keeping up with the ever-changing world, our curriculum encourages pupils to look beyond life at HGS and develop the important intangible skills that will benefit them throughout life as innovators, collaborators and leaders.

  • Specialist teaching in PE, swimming and ballet, plus Forest School lessons.

Year 2’s Charlotte has been promoting Beaumont House at Staffin, Isle of Skye, this week, as she searched for dinosaur footprints!

Wearing her bright yellow jumper for the occasion, Charlotte managed to locate a Megalosaurus print which are incredibly hard to find.

Charlotte is a keen dinosaur lover and currently wants to be a Palaeontologist when she grows up! 🦕

We love how our students have invested in the house competition! Remember to keep sending them in!
