Welcome to Bexley Grammar

Welcome to our school, which I hope you will find is built upon strong relationships, high expectations and a caring environment.  Every visitor who I have spoken to, from other Headteachers to OFSTED Inspectors to incidental passers-by, comments on the warmth that is so evident as you walk our corridors. 

Our staff invest a huge amount of time in our students and that in turn is reciprocated by our young people, whose behaviour and attitudes are exemplary.  The older they get, the more they lead and instil such attitudes in their peers.  

Our students rise to the ambitious challenges we set for them both within and beyond the curriculum so that they leave as self-assured, compassionate, highly skilled young people, equipped to flourish in higher education or employment in our ever-changing world.
