Saint Felix School celebrates 125th anniversary

Saint Felix School

Southwold

At Saint Felix School, the focus is on an allround excellent education enabling every pupil to flourish. Saint Felix prides itself on equipping pupils with the skills necessary to become fully prepared individuals, ready to meet challenges and opportunities in a rapidly changing world. A co-educational independent day and boarding school for children aged 2-18 with boarding from age 9, Saint Felix sits on a 75acre site within walking distance of the thriving Suffolk seaside town of Southwold.

The breadth of subjects and extensive extracurricular activities on offer, as well as the quality of teaching, present opportunities for any child to realise their potential. For one pupil this might be academic studies, for another sport, while another may find their forte in music. At Saint Felix School, we encourage pupils to make the most of what we provide and gain skills to become the best global citizens they can possibly be.

Saint Felix has a long and proud tradition of academic excellence. The school recently ranked in the top 5% of schools nationally and top school in Suffolk for A Level progress. Sixth Formers benefit from a top university preparation programme with traditional and modern subjects to choose from.

“Saint Felix provided an amazing environment to facilitate the jump between GCSEs and Sixth Form. The access to support, resources and facilities helped students to be successful in the independent study required for A Levels“ - Former Sixth Former

Boarding is available on a full-time, weekly and flexi basis, especially popular in examination years and for special evening events. An extensive bus route service is available across Suffolk and South Norfolk to include new routes into Essex and Hertfordshire.

“Alongside the academic support, the pastoral support offered by the school is outstanding. Saint Felix offers a supportive, family-style environment to allow your creativity to flourish.” - Former pupil

Pupils at Saint Felix benefit from wonderful on-site facilities which include an indoor swimming pool, fully equipped gym, theatre, dance studio and several sports pitches. Saint Felix pupils regularly compete in sport at regional, national and international level.

“As the school celebrates its 125th anniversary in 2022, we are building on our excellent academic record and continue to offer all Saint Felix pupils full opportunities in academic, art, drama and sport within the best possible learning environment.” - James Harrison, Headmaster
