Sir Henry Floyd Grammar School is a co-educational 11-18 selective grammar school on Oxford Road in Aylesbury, with about 1,348 pupils and a place in Insignis Academy Trust. Its public identity is deliberately contemporary: the motto is "The Grammar School of Today", and the school says its vision is to equip the visionaries of tomorrow through a grammar-school education that challenges and inspires.
The Floydian Scholar values give the profile texture. Resilience, reciprocity, resourcefulness, reflection and respect are presented as habits for the whole community, with challenge, empathy, creativity and ethical leadership woven through the mission statement. The curriculum pages cover academic subjects, assessment, co-curricular activity, sport and sixth-form options, while the site also points to music, drama, trips, library provision, student leadership and sports partnership activity through Insignis.
The sixth form is framed as a forward-looking next stage, with applications, transition, UCAS and KS5 options material. The school also makes performance and inspection information easy to find; its recent Ofsted context is particularly strong, with Outstanding judgements across the main areas in the current record.
Year 7 entry is through the Buckinghamshire Secondary Transfer Test and has 180 places. The GL Assessment route uses two multiple-choice papers, weighted 50% verbal skills, 25% mathematical skills and 25% non-verbal skills; 121 or above qualifies for grammar-school consideration. The 2027 policy then applies priorities including looked-after status, catchment Pupil Premium, siblings, children of Insignis staff, catchment residence and distance. Published measures include +0.49 Progress 8, 98.3% grade 5+ in English and maths and 30% AAB or better at A level.
