Start of Term – September 2014

LAMDA coming soon to HGS!

We are going to be offering LAMDA tuition at HGS. LAMDA stands for The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art and is a globally recognised institution. Exams can be taken in 3 areas: Communication (speaking and reading), Performance (acting, devising, and mime) and Group (group recitals, group acting). Key habits for learning can be developed through LAMDA such as confidence, clear speech, presentation skills and working in a team as well as having a lot of fun.

We also would like to establish an after school Drama Club.

Please collect a leaflet and letter for more details from your English teacher and why not try a taster session?

HGS receives 5 Star Rating!

In its recent Real Schools Guide the Birmingham Mail awarded Handsworth Grammar School the top score of 5 Stars. This is based upon Attainment, Teaching, Attendance and Outcomes data and makes us one of the top 8 schools in the city as well as one of the top performing schools nationally. This is a great achievement and is something the whole school community can be proud of!
