 Welcome to our web site and our school!
My name is Lorraine Barker and I am Principal of The Mirfield Free Grammar and Sixth Form.
Founded in 1667 we have a long established tradition of success and promote values such as respect, honesty, integrity, morality and courtesy. We are also a DCSF designated Technology College and a Foundation School. We embrace the new technologies to ensure that our students have the skills to equip them for life in the 21st century.
We are an outstanding school and achieved our highest GCSE results of 81% 5 A*-Cs this year (2009) and have recently been appointed as a High Performing Specialist School as a Leadership Partner School. Success breeds success and we are immensely proud of our academic achievements, our sporting prowess, our creative and performing arts and our Sixth Form. Extra curricular and community activities play an essential part of school life here too.
Enjoy browsing through our site, you are most welcome to make an appointment to visit us if you would like to learn more. |

Once again results have risen, 81% A*-C with 57% A*-C including English and Mathematics. Credit needs to go to students, parents and staff for their hard work over the past five years.
Students now have a great platform for the future and we enjoyed enrolling a number of them in our 6th form. |

The Schools Adjudicator, Canon Richard Lindley, has decided that Kirklees Council cannot enlarge The Mirfield Free Grammar & Sixth Form or close Castle Hall School.
We are delighted with this decision and would like to sincerely thank all staff, students, parents, residents and friends for their tremendous support via letters, emails and presence at the public meeting.
This decision ensures that The Mirfield Free Grammar & Sixth Form can continue to provide the outstanding education it currently offers.
Once again, heartfelt thanks for your support for current and future students who only get one chance.
