About Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys

Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys is located on the outskirts of Canterbury in Kent. It is one of the UK's highest performing schools and has a science specialism. The school has 1,250 students and has a mixed sixth form with both boys and girls. Our vision is to become a world class community of independent learners who enjoy an ability to think creatively, critically and innovatively beyond the formal curriculum; who possess a strong sense of responsibility for their school, for their community and for the environment and who have the will and the initiative to use these skills not only for the benefit of themselves, but for the good of the wider world. We will achieve this through: - Delivering the academically robust Langton Curriculum, promoting cultural literacy and intellectual rigour in all key stages. - Working collaboratively with our students to enable them to become the best versions of themselves they can be in order that they can make good and meaningful contributions to future society. - Maintaining an outstanding extra-curricular provision in sport, drama, art and music and in our unique, open-ended research programmes. We have spent years perfecting a genuine research based philosophy of education which we think is unique in the country and believe really equips our students to succeed at university and beyond. We believe in a learning model whereby teachers and students engage in authentic, open ended academic research in the sciences and humanities searching for answers to questions that, currently, none of them know. By removing the traditional parameters to learning we are constantly astounded by what our students are capable of achieving, way beyond the standard curriculum.
