Governance

The fundamental purpose of any Governing Body must be to help the school provide the best possible education for all its pupils’ (Department for Education).

The Governors take a keen interest in GPPS life attending school events such as Speech Day, the Carol Service, the infants’ Nativity play and Sports Day as well as supporting PTA events.

Our school is part of the Inspired Learning Group (‘ILG’) of independent schools and nurseries. www.inspiredlearninggroup.co.uk

Our Aim

ILG strives to create safe and inspiring educational environments where children can grow into positive and impactful members of society who will, one day in turn, shape the outlook of the next generation. Our schools and nurseries combine traditional values and forward-thinking ideas to help every single pupil realise their potential, so they are prepared to take on jobs that have not yet been invented.

Our Philosophy

ILG believes, first and foremost, in putting your child at the heart of everything we do. We endeavour to provide educational excellence within a culture of care to nurture each pupil the best we can. We want to offer a wide range of opportunities, both academic and extra-curricular, so that all our children are endowed with the spirit to aspire and become twenty first century citizens.
