About Enfield Grammar School

Enfield Grammar School is rightly proud of its fine traditions and examination achievements. It is also a school which is intent on ensuring that the breadth and quality of education will, as far as is possible, equip its pupils to meet the rapidly changing demands of the future.

We have high expectations of our students and in turn provide learning opportunities where all can fulfil their potential. Our motto, “Tant Que Je Puis” (As Much As I Can) is at the heart of our School community and we actively encourage both staff and students to strive for this aspiration

We are committed to supporting career progression and professional development for staff at all levels, with access to opportunities for self-development and regular Continuing Professional Development sessions.

The school is based on two sites. The Upper School is a mixture of original 16th and more recent 20th Century buildings and is situated just off the Market Square in the centre of Enfield Town. The Lower School, a five minutes walk from the Upper School, is a 17th Century listed building which houses Years 7 and 8. The school roll is approximately 1130 boys, of whom some 210+ are in the Sixth Form.

The school has a strong commitment to extra-curricular activities of all forms and it is expected that all potential members of staff would be willing to support this commitment.
