Esland Grantham School
Grantham, Lincolnshire, East Midlands · NG31 9RT
With just 31 pupils on roll, Esland Grantham School is among the smallest independent schools a family is likely to consider, offering a setting where every child is known individually. The school is non-denominational and co-educational, taking pupils from age 11, and is led by headteacher Mrs Suzanne Harvey. It operates as a day school in Grantham, Lincolnshire, with no boarding provision. Its very small size suggests a highly personalised approach rather than the breadth of a large institution.

The last word
A small, fee-paying day school where the headline data is best understood in the context of an unusually tiny intake. Families would do well to visit and ask directly how the school supports each child's progress.
