LGS STONEYGATE
Stoneygate is one of Leicester’s oldest preparatory schools, tracing its history back to 1856. The school became part of the Leicester Grammar School group in 2016. LGS Stoneygate admits boys and girls between the ages of 4 and 16 from Reception to Year 11.
ABOUT
The school was known as Leicester Preparatory School at Stoneygate College but became LGS Stoneygate upon the decision to expand their offer to the age of 16 following many of the IAPS Sixteen Group peers.
The school, its’ governors and its’ executives are members of the Association of Governing Bodies of Independent Schools (AGBIS); Admissions, Marketing and Communications in Independent Schools (AMCIS); the Forest Schools Association (FSA); the Independent Schools Association (ISA); the Independent Schools’ Bursars Association (ISBA); the Independent Schools Council (ISC); the Society of Heads (SOH); and was previously affiliated with the Woodard Schools group. The school is inspected by the Independent Schools Inspectorate.
