Banbury School is a mixed, multi-heritage, fully comprehensive school with 1,650 students (including sixth form) situated on Ruskin Road, in the Easington ward of Banbury, Oxfordshire, England. The school is a specialist Humanities College.Constituent schoolsBanbury School used to be three separate schools. These were:Stanbridge Hall (the former grammar school)Wykham Hall Broughton Hall Although these are all now part of the same school, the constituent buildings are still referred to by their old names.Before the school's name was changed to Banbury Grammar School in 1946, it was called Banbury County School and was a mixed school for boys and girls from the ages of 11 to 18/19. It was founded in 1893. Wykham Hall was built in about 1953 and was called Easington Modern Boys' School.Banbury and Drayton merger proposalIn April 2003, there was a proposal which suggested that Banbury School and Drayton School should be merged as one school, while Blessed George Napier School (which is situated next to Banbury School) would move to the site of Drayton School. However, this idea met with opposition from a large percentage of the community because it would have meant an increase in travelling for those students who currently attend Drayton School. Many argued that it would mean a loss of parental choice and would mean that Banbury School, which has stood at the heart of Banbury's community for many years, would lose its identity. As a result, the merger will not take place.

Wing Chun is one of the youngest martial arts. It developed out of Shaolin kung fu and was designed to be a more streamlined system focusing on short, direct movements to minimise wasted motion and energy. This is what makes Wing Chun the most effective self defence system in the world. The central idea is that, under pressure, it is impossible to visually recognize the precise direction and speed of an attack and make a conscious decision on an effective way in which to react, all within the very brief amount of time you have before your opponent’s attack lands. Rather, one must (counter) attack immediately in a very direct and protected manner, and rely on reflexes to determine how to react if the opponent’s attack continues to pose a problem. Chi Sao , or “sticking hands” trains students to respond reflexively to the speed, force, and direction of an attack based on tactile information – which the human brain processes much faster than visual information.

Al Madina School (Formally known as Ash- Shifa School) is an independent day school founded by the Ash-Shifa Trust & has been established since 2002. The School provides secondary education to girls ages 11 to 16, based on the National Curriculum while adhering to teach with a strong Islamic ethos. All our girls are pushed to achieve the best possible, spiritually and academically. As the school firmly believes they both go hand in hand. For this reason we pride ourselves in having a National curriculum & an Islamic Sciences curriculum where people study as many as 16 different subjects in a week. Al Madina School is not only a place of education but due to its small classes, its a small community. This community sense gives our pupils a chance to flourish and be independent and this is reflected by our curriculum in which we strive to be as broad and as challenging as possible. Other then the school, we also run a Madrassa from Monday to Fridays from 4 till 6pm. We Alhamdulillah currently have 100 students attending & benefiting from the Madrassa. Segregated fitness classes for sisters take place twice a week and a nursery which runs on the weekends from 11am to 1pm For further info on the School in general or any of the classes we hold at the School, please contact the School ASAP.
