Proud to be Old Stopfordians Everyone at SGS is proud of our thriving Old Stops community. You’re part of a special association of former students, all connected through your life-shaping education in the heart of Stockport. Across the generations, so many of you have brought the distinctive SGS ethos to successful careers in business, medicine, the arts, the public sector and more. You are an inspiration, helping to create change locally, nationally and across the world as leaders, influencers and entrepreneurs. As if to underline the unique and far-reaching influence of the School on people’s lives, we’re thrilled that a large number of Old Stops send their own children to SGS.
