GHCS Accounts 2008-2010 112 2 Introduction Vision Grindon Hall Free School (GHFS) seeks to establish 500 outstanding, new, free school places within one of the country’s most socially and economically deprived areas, championing a traditional academic curriculum within a small, secure and intimate environment designed to support students throughout their years in school. Background Grindon Hall Christian School is a well-established independent school with an excellent reputation and high academic standards. By becoming a Free School1, its Trustees now seek to remove the barrier of fees which prevents so many local families from accessing such an education for their children aged between 4 and 18. The School was founded in 1988 upon a vision to provide a safe and secure school for vulnerable children and for others who preferred a small school environment to the much larger state-funded alternatives. In keeping with its non-selective and inclusive admissions policy, this vision has been realised by keeping fees lower than all other fee-paying schools in the region and providing approximately £250,000 each year in bursaries and family discounts.
