Bradford Grammar School (BGS) is ranked as a Top Ten UK best value independent school for girls and boys aged 6 to 18 in Yorkshire. It is a co-educational, independent school in Frizinghall, Bradford, West Yorkshire, England. Headmaster, Kevin Riley is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC). The school was founded in 1548 and granted its Charter by King Charles II in 1662.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=History of the School )〕 Until 1975 it was a direct grant grammar school, and when this scheme was abolished it chose to become independent. The school motto is (ラテン語:Hoc Age) (Do This).〔(Merriam-Webster definition of ''Hoc-Age'' )〕 Entrance is by examination, except for the Sixth Form, where admission is based on GCSE results. The school gives means-tested bursaries to help with fees. Bradford Grammar School, unusually for a private school, does not offer scholarships based on academic achievement, a policy enforced by the previous headmaster, Stephen Davidson. ==Education== In 2013, the pass rate for GCSE (Grades A * - C) was 99%, which was equalled by the A-Level students. 31 courses are offered for A-Levels, and 97% of sixth-form pupils went on to study further education or deferred a year.〔("isbi Schools" )〕 The standard requirement for entry to the sixth form is nine B grades at GCSE, in 2008 the lower sixth had an average equivalent to ten A grades at GCSE. The pupil to teacher ratio is 15:1, and class sizes start at around 20 in the first year and are often below 10 by the final year. There are currently 934 pupils in the Senior School, including 267 in the Sixth Form and 188 in the Junior School (Clock House). The school became fully co-educational in September 1999. As at September 2011 687 boys and 435 girls were on the role. Currently there are 115 members of staff at the school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bradford Grammar School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
