An excellent education
For Boys & Girls from 0-18

We are a thriving independent day and boarding school with the belief that with the right support and opportunities every child can achieve their personal best. In our community, pupils achieve more than their very best exam results. Every day is a chance to discover new passions and skills, preparing for a future filled with possibilities.
