The school with pioneering spirit
Situated on the edge of the glorious Cotswolds, Wycliffe College is an inclusive, leading co-ed school for pupils aged three to 19, helping pupils achieve their academic, spiritual, physical and creative potential.
For 140 years, Wycliffe has closely supported the families and children of those serving in the British Armed Forces. We understand the challenges of military life and use our experience to support Military Families from around the world to settle quickly into school life.
Wycliffe is a global community welcoming pupils from across the world. Pupils aged 7 to 19 can board on a full, flexi or day basis. Boarders have plenty of opportunities to make friends and socialise through weekend events and evening activities. Approximately a third of our Boarders are from Military families.
Wycliffe offers excellent pastoral care. We ensure all pupils and families have stability, security, and flexibility in a strong and caring community. In the Prep School (aged 3 to 13), our small class sizes ensure individual attention and focused learning. The Senior School (age 13 to 19 years old) offers 20 GCSE options, and Sixth Form pupils can choose from 28 course options.
The Wycliffe experience is more than what happens in the classroom. Wycliffe promotes a pioneering spirit and encourages pupils to flourish and embrace their futures as global citizens. In Prep, children enjoy regular Forest School sessions and participate in pursuits such as cycling challenges and climbing during expedition days. In the Senior School, pupils’ minds are broadened by trying new activities from over 60 clubs. Leadership, looking after others and being part of a team are all essential aspects of life at Wycliffe. Learning to be a responsible young adult that cares for others and their community is part of a Wycliffe education.

We have a long tradition of supporting the families and children of those serving in the British Armed Forces. A third of our boarders are from Forces Families and many start in the Prep School from Year 3 (our youngest boarders) and stay with us right up to Year 13 in the Senior School.
