Sandroyd is located in a breathtaking setting of over 500 acres of parkland – a haven for sports and outdoor learning. The school offers a broad curriculum which aims to enable every pupil to flourish as an individual.
Headmaster Alastair Speers says: "I appreciate that this vision is by no means unique, but I believe that what makes Sandroyd such an exceptional place to learn is the unwavering commitment from the entire staff community to create this outstanding learning experience. The collective effort of every member of our team creates the magic at Sandroyd and ensures all staff, pupils, prospective pupils, and parents experience a profound sense of teamwork and belonging."
"Our collaborative teaching and support staff are fully committed to delivering an education that provides the best preparation for our pupils in a setting that is as nurturing and joyous as it is ambitious, guiding each child to achieve their full potential."
"We are rightly proud of our pupils' academic success and the accolades they secure at the country's top senior schools, but beyond this, it is how they embody the true essence of a Sandroyd education – one that extends far beyond mere academic achievement – that sees them make a success of life at their next school and beyond."
