A Grammar School existed in Bourne as early as the 14th century.  The present Grammar School, however, originated from the bequest of William Trollope and was founded in 1636.  The School moved to its present site in 1921 and occupies a pleasant site to the south of the Lincolnshire market town of Bourne.  It enjoys an enviable academic reputation and admits students from a wide area including Stamford, Peterborough, the Deepings and Spalding. Bourne Grammar is a mixed selective School with a large Sixth Form offering academic A-Levels. The School is rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted and became an Academy on 1 January 2012.  In the last decade the School has expanded rapidly and there are now over 1600 students on roll, including over 400 in the Sixth Form.
