Borden Grammar School

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Borden Grammar School is a selective grammar school situated in Sittingbourne, Kent, England which educates students aged 11—18. As of 2006, the current headmaster is Harold S. Vafeas. The school was originally built in Borden on Riddles Road, funded with money from then local resident William Barrow. It later moved to its present site in Avenue of Remembrance, Sittingbourne but retained its original name. The old school building is now an Adult Education Centre.

The school has a latin motto, nitere porro which translates as "to strive forward".

On September 1, 2005 the school was awarded Sports College specialist status. It is now applying for Language College Status, and is hopeful seeing as in its latest Ofsted inspection, language facilities at Borden were rated extremely high.
