Parent HandbookIt gives me great pleasure to welcome you to Gildredge House, a mixed, comprehensive, all-through free school providing an excellent education for students aged 4 to 19.
First and foremost, Gildredge House is a school for the local community which allows each individual to thrive and develop into a successful young person. High expectations of behaviour and hard work and the promotion of personal resilience lie at the heart of what we do.
Gildredge House is a welcoming place with a warm, family atmosphere. Our staff are extraordinarily hard-working and they are committed to ensuring that your children reach their full potential. At Gildredge House, our students excel academically as well as develop socially and emotionally, preparing them for the challenges of adult life.
As an all-through school, we share facilities and resources which creates numerous opportunities for students to integrate across Year Groups, providing them with continuity and stability and offering them a chance to develop leadership skills. This means that students approach transitions over the years with high levels of self-confidence and positivity.
Please feel free to make an appointment to visit during the school day so that we can show you around.
Mrs Sharon Waterman, Interim Head Teacher
We are pleased to report that Gildredge House has been judged ‘Good’ by Ofsted.
