About Barton Court Grammar School
Barton Court Grammar School (formerly Barton Court Grammar School for Girls) is a co-educational selective Academy of Excellence in Canterbury, Kent with 836 students between the ages of 11-18. It has Foreign Language College status and offers A-Levels.
The school was founded before World War II as the Canterbury Technical School for Girls. It shared the old hospital site on the north side of Longport, along with the equivalent for boys (which became Chaucer School) and the Technical College (which became Canterbury College). It moved across the road to the present site in 1945. Past Headmistresses were Miss E. Blackith (who retired in 1967) and followed by Mrs V. Arnold. On 1 September 2011, Barton Court Grammar School became an Academy. Barton Court did not change its name as it wished to keep it the same.
