The show runs until the 29th of January 2012 and has been well received by the public. |
Welcome to Stanwell School's website.
Stanwell School is a popular, oversubscribed 11-18 co-educational school with approximately 1900 pupils on roll in Years 7-13 with a thriving sixth form. The school uses an active discipline system where good behaviour is rewarded and students have clear boundaries. As a result of this, relationships between staff and pupils are a great strength and assist in the learning process.
We are a fully comprehensive school which provides a safe and stimulating environment, ensuring that students achieve their potential.
As an 11-18 school we are able to provide students with the continuity throughout school key stages, which assists in the development of the young person. The majority of students choose to remain in Stanwell School for their post-16 education where they are comfortable in the knowledge that they will receive high quality teaching to assist in their learning development.
