Family days out

Where our children spend most of their week and how they are being educated is a decision which should take some serious consideration. We have put together this list of suggestions to make your life a little bit easier. Many local schools and nurseries offer free tours so please go and visit your choice options before making that final important decision.

Eton College

Eton College is a charity for the advancement of education. At its heart sits an independent boys’ boarding school which leads a dynamic range of educational activities and an expanding network of educational partnerships. The charity’s primary purpose, determined from its Christian foundation in 1440, is to draw out the best of young people’s talents and to enable them to flourish and make a positive impact on others through the course of a healthy, happy and fulfilling life.

We are a school that fosters positive relationships across the whole community and are committed to ensuring that our students have outstanding learning opportunities across a broad curriculum. These experiences will help develop their curiosity so they can approach the future with confidence and optimism, knowing that they can help shape the communities in which they live and work.

Lambrook School

We have maintained our excellent Common Entrance results and we regularly receive a healthy number of academic, sport and music scholarships to a large spread of the most highly sought after senior schools in the country. In addition to this, Lambrookians achieve so much more outside the classroom; we have a strong reputation on the sporting circuit as well as in music and performing arts and we run an award winning extra-curricular programme. Most of all, we encourage our pupils to be kind to one another and to be concerned about the world in which they live. Our pupils are happy, and our priority is that they enjoy being at school each day.

St. Mary’s School

St Mary’s is a warm and caring community where we are passionate about bringing out the full potential of each of our 380 pupils. As a full boarding school, with only a few places for day pupils who live nearby, we offer a wealth of co-curricular opportunities, meaning that life at St Mary’s is vibrant, exciting and always good fun. We are proud of the strength of our academic achievements and work tirelessly to build on our tradition of excellence both in and out of the classroom. We would be very pleased to welcome you to St Mary’s at one of our Open Days, to show you our school and to introduce you to some of our pupils.

Heathfield School

Welcome to Heathfield School. A leading independent weekly, full boarding and day school for girls aged 11 – 18. First founded in London in 1882, Heathfield today continues to thrive in the beautiful environs of Ascot, just 50 minutes from London. An enriching combination of contemporary education and tradition, the Heathfield values of authenticity, commitment to the community and personal application enable all girls to recognise and celebrate their individuality and social responsibility. When young people feel valued and happy, are appropriately challenged, and supported, and when they are enjoying school, they will flourish. With the newly completed Cadogan Sixth Form Centre, we feel privileged to lead a school where commitment to continuous improvement and innovation is so strong, both in and out of the classroom.

St George’s School

St George’s is a place where girls flourish academically, creatively, physically, and morally, a place where risks can be taken, lessons are learnt, and challenges are welcomed. There is no such thing as a typical St George’s girl as each of our pupils arrive with their own set of talents and interests. It is our privilege to encourage and challenge each one of them to develop a genuine understanding of who she is and support them to achieve the future of their choice.

Papplewick

We welcome you to gain a flavour of what makes Papplewick so special as a prep school for around 200 boys aged 6 to 13. We know that boys of this age have a natural spark and individuality about them, and we believe these are qualities that should be celebrated throughout their time at prep school. We also know that boys thrive on high expectations and challenge, whether in the classroom, on the sports field, or in the Arts. By setting the bar high, Papplewick boys gain entry to the top UK senior schools including Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Wellington, Charterhouse, Bradfield, and Stowe.
