Dane Court Grammar School is a mixed selective secondary school, set on a spacious site in Broadstairs, in the heart of Thanet.At Dane Court, students are encouraged to take responsibility for their own learning and form balanced, well informed opinions, which they can communicate effectively whilst maintaining a strong sense of respect for the values of others. We provide an excellent academic education that equips students with the knowledge and skills required for university, employment, and life. Students are encouraged to develop the skills to learn independently, to lead and work in groups, and to research and present information effectively. Our modern classrooms, laboratories, workshops, and creative spaces are a stimulating environment in which to learn. We aim to develop students' judgement and integrity, such that they may engage with the world as effective citizens, confident in their own worth and purpose. To achieve this, we foster a caring, supportive school community, in which every member is respected as an individual, with a sense of belonging and ownership. We develop, in students, an internationalist approach to society and an appreciation and understanding of the culture, history, and languages of other countries. We provide opportunities for students to engage with the wider community, both nationally and internationally, in order to develop their confidence and desire to be citizens of the world. We provide a variety of extracurricular opportunities, in which students may participate to extend their learning and social experiences. The school has a proud sporting reputation at local, county, and national levels.
