At Stanley Park High School, we believe in empowering our students to reach their full potential, both within our local community and on the global stage. That’s why we are thrilled to highlight the incredible achievements of our students and the wide range of awards and scholarships available to support their ambitions.
Showcasing Student Talent and Dedication
Each year, we have the honor of celebrating the extraordinary accomplishments of our students through various awards and recognition programs. These accolades not only acknowledge their hard work and dedication but also serve as a testament to the diverse talents and perspectives within our school community.
One particularly noteworthy event is our International Education Week celebration, where we come together to recognize the contributions of our international students and the invaluable benefits of cross-cultural exchange. During this week, we host a vibrant Parade of Flags, where students proudly carry the flags of their home countries, showcasing the rich diversity that enriches our campus.
Alongside the Parade of Flags, we also hold an International Awards Ceremony to honor outstanding achievements in areas such as international teaching, research, service, and community engagement. These awards celebrate the transformative impact our students and faculty have had, both locally and globally.
Empowering Student Success: Scholarships and Funding Opportunities
At Stanley Park High School, we are committed to providing our students with the resources and support they need to thrive. One of the ways we do this is through an extensive array of scholarships and funding opportunities, which are designed to open doors to international experiences and academic excellence.
Our Guaranteed Entrance Scholarships are automatically awarded to eligible students entering our school directly from high school, based on their academic performance. These scholarships, ranging from £500 to £3,000 per year, serve as a powerful incentive for students to strive for academic excellence.
In addition to our Guaranteed Entrance Scholarships, we offer Academic Excellence Awards to returning students who continue to excel in their studies. These merit-based awards, granted to students in their second, third, and fourth years, further reinforce our commitment to celebrating and rewarding outstanding academic achievement.
But the opportunities don’t stop there. We also provide a range of international exchange and study abroad programs, which give our students the chance to immerse themselves in new cultures, gain valuable experiences, and broaden their global perspectives. These programs are supported by a variety of scholarships and funding sources, ensuring that cost is not a barrier to accessing these transformative opportunities.

Through our awards, scholarships, and international programs, we are empowering our students to confidently navigate the ever-evolving landscape of the 21st century.
Whether it’s a student from Kenya carrying their national flag in our Parade of Flags, an international student earning recognition for their outstanding academic achievements, or a scholar receiving funding to embark on a life-changing study abroad experience, each story reflects the boundless potential of our diverse and talented student community.
At Stanley Park High School, we are proud to be a place where students can explore, discover, and thrive on the global stage.
