About Simon Langton Grammar School for Boys
The school is larger than the average-sized secondary school. It often refers to itself as ‘The Langton’. The school specialises in science and mathematics and promotes science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education vigorously. It has working links with major organisations such as the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) and the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) and has a purpose-built facility for scientific research. About one in five students come from minority ethnic backgrounds, the largest group being of Eastern European heritage. The school provides for students on the autistic spectrum disorder. They are cared for within a faculty of support and guidance, no longer in a separate unit. They are rarely taught in the faculty but use it as a base to discuss their learning and personal needs. The school works collaboratively with Canterbury Academy to support the academy’s curriculum and teaching of the most able students and so that it can learn from the academy’s teachers’ expertise.
