Parent HandbookWelcome to our Year 7 Transition webpage! Gildredge House is a welcoming place and we hope you will get a feel for our warm atmosphere and our family approach to education.
Gildredge House is a school for the local community; we have high expectations of behaviour and hard work and how, especially in these challenging times, it is important to be resilient in the face of difficult circumstances.
Staff are extraordinary, they will go the extra mile so that your son or daughter will reach their full potential, improve their life chances and be successful for years to come. Students leave our school with high levels of self-confidence and positivity, they have matured emotionally and socially and they excel academically. They are ready for the next part of their amazing journey.
