The Mirfield Free Grammar is a warm and inclusive school community where positive relationships between staff and pupils create a true sense of belonging. We pride ourselves on maintaining a calm and supportive environment where every pupil feels safe, valued, and empowered to achieve their best. 

We have high expectations for all our students. Supported by our multi academy trust, we’ve introduced research-informed strategies to improve teaching and learning, ensuring all pupils benefit from high-quality education. Beyond the classroom, we offer a rich programme of personal development to help our children grow into well-rounded, responsible citizens. Leadership opportunities abound through our Young School Leaders Programme, where pupils develop independence and take on responsibilities that shape their character. Extra-curricular clubs, including chess, art, debating, and table tennis, further enhance pupils’ confidence and skills.

At The MFG we prioritise the well-being of our staff, ensuring that workloads are fair and manageable.  As part of Great Heights Academy Trust, The MFG provides employees with exceptional opportunities for professional growth and development. The Trust fosters a vibrant sense of community and collaboration, enabling staff to share expertise and innovative practices across schools. Employees benefit from bespoke coaching, mentoring, and network groups designed for leaders and curriculum specialists, as well as access to research-informed professional development programs.

The Mirfield Free Grammar is more than just a school—it’s a community dedicated to achieving excellence together. If you’re looking to make a difference in a supportive and forward-thinking environment, we’d love for you to join us on our journey.
