About Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School
- Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School
- Oxford Road, Aylesbury
- Buckinghamshire
- HP21 8PE
- United Kingdom
We are a co-educational selective school in the centre of Aylesbury. Our roll is currently 1230, including a sixth form of 350. Between forty and sixty sixth formers join us from other schools in the area. We serve a very wide area – most of North Buckinghamshire and Milton Keynes.
Our facilities and examination results have improved significantly in recent years. Almost all our students go to university when they leave us – many to competitive universities including a handful to Oxford and Cambridge.
Parents regularly tell us that we do an excellent job of turning out well-rounded young adults who are prepared to make a great success of their adult lives. Our relationships are important to us – because we know that our students will learn better when they are feeling good about themselves.
Historically we have had specialisms in performing arts, science and leadership. All have left their legacy in our culture.
