Thank you for visiting our school website. We are delighted to welcome you to Gartree High School.
Gartree is a vibrant and thriving Leicestershire high school, based in the local community of Oadby. We educate around 900 students and we are very proud of the unique contribution each and every one of them makes to school life.
At Gartree we offer a broad and balanced academic curriculum. A special feature of our school is the enrichment opportunities devised through the creative energies of our staff. Such activities develop a full range of skills and provide memorable experiences for our students. We are very proud that our school continues to maintain excellent examination results at GCSE alongside this wealth of co-curricular opportunities.
Whilst academic achievement and intellectual development are central to our work, social and emotional learning is at the heart of what we do. We have high expectations of our students and push them towards greater and greater attainment. In addition, we are committed to nurturing an environment within which all feel valued and safe – and in doing this we develop successful, happy and confident young people.
As you explore these pages you will get a sense of our school culture, our core values and our expectations. We have a modern building and our school is set in lovely grounds. We take great pride in our learning environment and strive to enhance the day to day experience of our school community.
Our students expect to work hard and behave in a respectful manner. At Gartree High School we create a sense of enjoyment, to significantly improve learning and make a difference to young people. Every decision we make here is in the interest of our students.
Feel free to contact the school directly with any queries you may have.
