Kirkham Grammar School places a high priority on academic success and small teaching groups, especially during the examination years, supported by small tutor groups, thereby creating an enviable learning environment.

Added to this, the school is fortunate to be able to attract teachers of a very high quality, who work extremely hard and closely with their pupils. Academic staff work under the direction of experienced Heads of Department and Teams of Tutors are managed and supported by Heads of Lower, Middle and Upper School Sectors. Close team work plays a very important part in the success of the school.
