Head Master's Welcome
Welcome to the Altrincham Grammar School for Boys website. We are a selective grammar school providing an outstanding, all-round education for boys between the ages of 11 and 18.
We are a school that prides itself on being a diverse and inclusive community, where students feel happy, safe and fully supported to achieve their potential, both in and out of the classroom.
Our academic outcomes consistently ensure that we are amongst the top performing schools in the country, and our boys also gain both regional and national recognition across our extensive extracurricular programme.
At the heart of our school are the values of a love of learning, respect, responsibility and resilience. These values underpin everything we do, creating a supportive and ambitious community in which students are encouraged to embrace opportunities, persevere through challenges and develop the confidence, character and skills needed to achieve their full potential.
I am delighted that you are considering Altrincham Grammar School for Boys for your son. I hope that our website is able to answer many of your questions. Nothing, though, can substitute for a visit and I very much look forward to welcoming you to the School during one of our Open Evenings.
Mr I S Dicksee
Head Master
