To read our reports about this evening of celebration and inspiration, please follow this link.
The school’s A-level Art students had the opportunity to see Williams’ most recent and favourite works, and were invited to ask questions and engage with the artist as he explained his influences and processes. Williams’ rich medium of improvisatory storytelling through his self-described 'collage of styles' inspired the students to challenge themselves to connect with the observer. Williams emphasised the importance of evoking a 'visceral response' to one’s work, which could be accomplished by taking risks and testing the limits of the media they use.

Athletics Roundup Summer 2022
Highsted's annual Athletics Track & Field Event 2022 took place on Friday 15 July, accompanied by fantastic weather throughout the course of the day. All year groups took part in the events through a variety of running and throwing activities, and it was a pleasure to see the students competing in their forms for a medal, particulalry after the limited opportunities over the past two years due to the Covid pandemic. To read about this tremendously successful day and see photographs from the event, please follow the link to take you to our new webpage: Athletics Event 2022.
On Saturday 11 June 2022 nine of our athletes represented Highsted at the Kent Schools Track and Field Athletics event at Medway Park.
On Thursday 19 May, the Year 7 athletics team competed in the Swale District Athletics Competition at the Sittingbourne School; Thursday 5 May, saw the Year 9 team taking part in their age-related event; and Thursday 28 April began this year's District Competitions with the Year 10 athletes.
Overall this year has been our largest field of competitors to date, and it particularly pleasing to see Highsted girls competing against the rest of Kent after such a long absence from schools' competetive athletic events.
To read more about each competition, please follow the link to our Highsted Match Reports page.

ICGS Conference 2022
Having been selected to represent our school, a number of Year 12 & 10 students attended the International Coalition of Girls’ Schools (ICGS) conference on Tuesday 12 July. This year’s theme was social justice, with a focus on progressing towards true equality in both education and the wider society. Key concepts, such as unconscious bias, diversity & inclusion, and activism were covered, allowing for deep consideration and passionate discussions. Bouncing off of other students’ remarks and experiencing a strong sense of female empowerment gave us an unexplainable sense of pride, and we left each session feeling inspired and motivated to be an ‘agent of change.’

Highsted Grammar School
Welcome to Highsted Grammar School. Highsted is a happy and cohesive community and an environment which liberates young women to take the risks and embrace the challenges that will prepare them for their future roles and responsibilities as leaders in tomorrow’s society.
Our success is as a consequence of striking a fine balance between tradition and innovation. Our values are traditional ones and we offer an unashamedly academic curriculum. We are keenly aware, however, that we are preparing our students for a working life none of us can yet anticipate. Our focus, therefore, is on developing the skills, attributes and habits of mind that will equip our young women as life-long learners. Our aim is to launch them into the world as self-starters, focused but flexible, armed with the courage to grasp opportunities and the resilience and humour to negotiate setbacks along the way.
We encourage and support our students in exploring their own potential, nurturing existing talents and interests and discovering new ones along the way. To ensure we enable each and every girl to fulfil her potential, an emphasis is placed on personalisation, on proactive mentoring and on pastoral care. Our students will embark upon adult life conscious of their worth, ambitious for their futures and aware that they are lucky indeed to have been educated here.
Highsted is a very special school. If you want to see how special, you are warmly invited to pay us a visit.
Anne Kelly, Headteacher
