Profiles

The Mirfield Free Grammar (also known as the MFG) and sixth form is a secondary school in the town of Mirfield, West Yorkshire, England.

Patrick Stewart was a student at the MFG and, in September 2011, he opened the school as an academy. The school is rated 'Outstanding' by Ofsted in 2008 and again in 2012.

In 2013 a new extension was added to the sports centre which includes a state-of-the-art Dance Studio and Gym.

The school has undergone major renovations, completed by September 2014. This included a brand new Music, Drama and DT classrooms as well as a redeveloped quad area with ramp access for students, requiring some old buildings to be demolished and kept down.
