Wellbeing and Pastoral Care
Our strong ethos of pastoral care lies at the heart of everything we do at Amherst...
Our Libraries
The joy of reading to relax, escape, discover and learn is one we want every student to experience, embrace and enjoy.
"There's a warmth and gentleness which seems to be in the fabric of the building"
Wraparound Care
Wrap Around Care is designed to provide a helping hand for busy parents by caring for children for a period before the School day begins and up until 18:00 after School...
The Science Departments from the High School, Grammar School and Amherst School have collected and donated their safety goggles to Leicester Royal Infirmary. We are thankful to all frontline workers for the tremendous work they are doing to keep us safe.
