We are a school where we value the whole school community and work together as a team to ensure that everyone is ‘inspired to achieve’.

As a large, mixed, comprehensive we provide an innovative education from Year 7 to 13. Our research-based approach to learning leads to strong outcomes for our students. Our recent OFSTED (March 22) made reference to the ‘Fullbrook family’ which captures our warm, happy atmosphere.

Our aim is to ensure that during their time at Fullbrook, our students develop into confident and articulate young adults with a lifelong thirst for knowledge and a clear desire to make a positive contribution to society.

At Fullbrook:

• Students leave to become global citizens able to meet the challenges of the 21st century head-on

• Students have the desire to achieve this for themselves and support those around them to achieve it too

• All act with integrity and kindness

• Excellence in learning and teaching is achieved through a first-rate team of teachers and support staff

Glebelands is a non-selective school for students aged 11-16.  We are a vibrant, friendly and dynamic school with high expectations and ambitions for every student.

Glebelands students thrive in our environment; creatively, individually and academically and staff reinforce the values of leadership, kindness and independence.  Our motto, ‘Respect and Achieve,’ ensures students are empowered to become active citizens and learners.  Students consistently make excellent progress and achieve highly.  This is a result of high-quality, dedicated teaching and hard work from all within our community.

However, we believe school is about much more than GCSE results.  We are rightfully proud of the supportive and caring pastoral system that complements the wealth of learning and extra-curricular activities provided by committed staff.  Our common goal is to help our students grow and develop into successful young adults, with a pride in their school, and in themselves.

As a school we are not obsessed with reflecting on past glories or the latest headline grabbing news, but an active desire to find each student’s individual talent and help them surpass their personal best; developing our academic culture and the ethos of inclusivity, resilience and confidence, we are a school that is forward thinking, visionary and continually striving for excellence.

Everyday is open day at Glebelands and visitors are welcome.

At Guildford County School, we excel in all that we do. We are a high achieving, oversubscribed and non-selective, mixed state secondary school in Surrey and we are very proud of all aspects of our provision.

Music and sport, as well as a number of other co-curricular activities, sit alongside our established, yet progressive, academic curriculum. Students, staff and other stakeholders love our school. An academy converter, we are proud members of the Learning Partners Academy Trust and work tirelessly to serve our local community.

As a School founded in 1905 we have deep-rooted values and traditions that are centred around our C.A.S.T.L.E. framework. The castle is the symbol of our school – of its strength and of its safety and it is also the shorthand method by which we recall our values and behaviours of:

• Custodianship;
• Ambition;
• Standards;
• Transformation;
• Learning;
• Equity.

This framework shapes every aspect of our work at County and it feeds into our School Creed, which you can read in full on the strategy page of this website, here.

Guildford County School values and promotes excellence and recognises different kinds of success. We appreciate individual difference, foster respect, promote tolerance and the acceptance of others, encourage warm relationships and provide a place for all. Through providing opportunities for everyone to give and achieve we demonstrate our integrity, fairness and an ethical way of working. We are creative, open to innovation and initiative, whilst remaining respectful of our traditions. We aim to affirm in everyone a sense of identity, confidence and community.

Our school delivers consistently high examination results and has a strong reputation for academic success that is developed within a caring atmosphere that supports family values. Our dedicated staff work in partnership with students, creating an atmosphere of mutual respect and trust, which helps students to achieve their full potential. We provide outstanding and varied learning experiences and the school is renowned for its friendliness and student support. We operate a mantra of ‘kindness, but with a bottom line’.

As a Specialist Music college, we have a national reputation for excellence in this curriculum area. Music inspires our students, encourages self-esteem and helps them to work in teams and respect their peers. We take Music beyond the classroom to entertain and support the community and this highlights our drive for excellence in all aspects of school life.

Guildford County School educates the whole child and we have a wide-ranging programme of co-curricular activities that sit very much alongside our traditional class-based provision. We are delighted that our students grow into thriving, confident and resilient young people, well equipped for the challenges and opportunities that they will face when they leave us and enter honourable adulthood.

At Guildford County School, we have a deeply rooted sense of identity, we hold true to our framework of values and behaviours and we excel in all that we do.

I hope that you find the short films on this page, and on our website more generally, to be a valuable source of additional information about our glorious school.

With my very best wishes,

Families travel from far and near to attend Sandfield and all share our aims that children will be happy, build a solid foundation of learning and show their skills and talents as they learn to become responsible and caring to one another and the world in which they live.

At Sandfield, we live by our motto that "everyone is welcome, everyone belongs and everyone is important".

Shalford Infant & Nursery School is a small, village school, with just four classes, providing education for children from two to seven years old. We promise a special experience which is to be treasured and remembered. We aim to provide teaching and learning which inspires, motivates and engages all children to become life-long learners.

Our driving force is our vision of 'Enjoying Learning Together'. This can be seen every morning when the children rush into school with smiling faces, eager to learn. The talented team of teaching staff plan a curriculum that provides memorable experiences and purposeful activities that engage children of all ages and abilities. With just four classes, every child is special to us, and we get to know our pupils and families very well, developing strong relationships that work for the benefit of the children.

We all enjoy learning together here at Shalford and academic success is high, the results and outcomes our children achieve are higher than national averages and Surrey averages, but we know that this is only one part of what will make them successful in their lives. We recognise that they must also master other skills to really thrive in the future. Skills such as problem-solving, how to be calm, have self-awareness and self-control, how to keep trying even when things go wrong, to have a positive outlook on life and believe that they themselves have the power to make changes in their own lives, to be kind to other people and look to add happiness to the world and find positives in the challenges they will face.

We are a values led learning school, we explicitly teach children a set of values, which enable them to be the very best person that they can be. These values are like a golden thread that runs through the school, encompassing all that we do here. Thoughtfulness, honesty, empathy, tolerance and courage are just a few of the values that children and staff live by every day.

We have high expectations of all children and of our staff, but not at the expense of well-being. We believe that children should leave our school independent, happy and secure in who they are, with our school values packed in their invisible rucksacks, ready to take with them on the next step of their education journey.
