WELCOME TO ENDEAVOUR MAT
Our Trust was formed in April 2017 to help local schools in Dartford collaborate effectively and share resources, administration and specialist managerial skills and, of course, best teaching practice. The Trust includes selective and non-selective schools, single sex and co-ed.
Endeavour MAT aims to help our students find their own individual pathway to success. Exam results, apprenticeships and university places are important, but we also understand the need to develop wider life skills…
OUR VISION & VALUES
We are committed to inspiring and nurturing the next generation. Most educational Trusts like ours would say this – it’s the how do we do it, how we are different, that’s important.
We are a responsive, learning organisation. Though our core values can’t and won’t change we recognise the need to be flexible as to how we provide and promote a range of learning opportunities for our students and help them become well educated, rounded, community spirited young adults who are a global asset…
Our Schools
At Endeavour MAT, we are dedicated to providing exceptional education and fostering a nurturing environment where every student can thrive. Our family of schools, including Wilmington Grammar School for Boys, Wilmington Grammar School for Girls, Stone Lodge School, and Wilmington Primary School, share a common vision of academic excellence, personal growth, and community engagement. Each school within our Trust is committed to upholding the highest standards of teaching and learning, ensuring that our students are well-prepared for their future.
Wilmington Grammar School for Boys and Wilmington Grammar School for Girls both boast a long history of academic success, offering a rigorous curriculum that challenges and inspires students to achieve their best. Stone Lodge School, our most recently opened school, provides a dynamic and inclusive learning environment, embracing innovative teaching methods to cater to the diverse needs of our student body. Wilmington Primary School lays the foundation for lifelong learning with its supportive and stimulating atmosphere, where young learners are encouraged to explore and grow.

Our aim is to produce well-rounded individuals with a passion for learning and an enthusiasm for personal development. Results are consistently of a high standard with the majority of students going on to study in some of the most prestigious universities, whilst a minority opt for the Higher Level Apprenticeship programme as an alternative stepping stone to career success.
The school has an Engineering specialism and has developed some exciting links with business sponsors to ensure the curriculum is current and relevant to the rapidly changing needs of the workplace. Visits from alumnae help to ensure our students benefit from aspirational role models and can learn about the various routes and pathways available to them.

Founded in 1958, our school has been helping girls to secure outstanding academic results and providing a well-rounded experience for over half a century. The school encourages a happy and harmonious community which respects the individual and celebrates the rich diversity of backgrounds and heritage of students and staff.
We are a growing school with 1100 students currently on roll, but remain sufficiently small to recognise individual talents and ensure everyone is challenged and supported to reach their goals. Our core values of respect for the individual, the encouragement of involvement within school and externally and the development of initiative to provide students with confidence and curiosity are promoted through all facets of Wilmington life.

We are incredibly proud to offer an enriching learning experience for the children through a broad and balanced curriculum. Our learning culture is one of pride, self-motivation and resilience.
