• Leicester Grammar School Trust is established, academically serious and community minded, and aims to combine breadth, continuity and high standards across its schools.

• Will suit families seeking a substantial Leicestershire all-through option with a strong academic reputation and the reassurance of a broader school family.

Admissions at Leicester Grammar School Trust are broad based but well structured, with the appeal lying partly in the chance to join a sizeable family of co-educational day schools with continuity across the years. Families are likely to judge not just entry requirements but whether the trust-wide culture feels right for the long term.

Scholarships and bursarial support matter to some families here, because a trust of this size and profile tends to make recognition and access part of the offer. Even so, the bigger attraction is the breadth and continuity of the overall school family.

The overall picture is strong enough to do real homework before a visit, with the trust clearly presenting itself as a family of three schools based in Great Glen. Parents should still judge whether the scale feels energising and coherent rather than impersonal.
