Lawrence Sheriff School is an outstanding boys’ grammar school of approximately 930 students, over 300 of whom are in the sixth form. When inspected by Ofsted in 2007 the school was judged to be outstanding in all 42 categories. In April 2012 Lawrence Sheriff became a National Teaching School. As a result we now play a significant role in the development of initial teacher training and continuous professional development across the region.

In 2013 Ofsted stated ‘the school is a harmonious community where students with different needs can thrive, achieve highly in their academic work and enjoy a wide range of enrichment opportunities.’ In January 2011 the school was placed top of DfE performance tables for GCSE (having first achieved this distinction in 2008). We are proud that our students have very positive attitudes to learning.
