Our events are a wonderful opportunity for you to meet us and to discover the world of opportunities a BGS education could bring to your child.

Our Open Mornings are more structured and held throughout the school year. These events give prospective parents an opportunity to meet the Headmaster and members of staff and see the school on a working day.

Our main Open Day takes place in early October. This is an informal morning held on a Saturday from 9.30am to 12.30pm and gives prospective parents and children a fantastic insight into life at BGS. You would be shown around the school by one of our pupils, and staff would be on hand to answer your questions at any time during your visit. You would have the opportunity to look at our impressive facilities and get involved in the many activities we plan for you. Take a look at our latest Open Events video on the Join the BGS Family page.

Our Stay & Play taster sessions are an opportunity for potential parents and children aged 3-4 to come and experience life in our Reception class and meet some of our wonderful teachers.

You can, at any time, immerse yourself in all that BGS has to offer by accessing the 360° virtual tour of our Junior School, Senior School and Sixth Form.

Open Day is the most informal of our events held on a Saturday from 10am to 2pm. Prospective parents and students will be given a pupil tour guide around our fantastic facilities. You’ll get to visit all our departments where teachers and students will be running activities for you to observe or join in with as you please. Soak up our talent student’s art displays, music and work as you tour the school as see if you can picture yourself here as a student. You will also have the opportunity to meet the Headmaster, the Finance Team, and staff members to ask any questions you may have.

Open Mornings are more formal with a pupil tour guide of the school during a normal school day seeing the lessons in action! There will be dedicated time after the tours for you to ask any questions to the admissions team.
