  • The Grammar Stream Steering Group encompasses senior leaders from both Marlborough College and Swindon Academy.
  • Marlborough College brings expertise in developing a highly academic curriculum.
  • Schemes of work, teaching resources and strategies to stretch and challenge the most able are shared and discussed between the two schools.
  • An annual calendar of enrichment and extension activities at Marlborough College is created for Grammar Stream pupils.
  • During year 10, all pupils in the Grammar Stream will have an opportunity to apply for the Marlborough College Sixth Form Bursary
