About St Gabriel's School
Founded in 1929, St Gabriel’s is a thriving co-educational independent day school for children aged 6 months to 18 years. The key to our success is providing a balanced and inspiring education within a community based on mutual respect and collaboration, creating an environment where pupils are confident, engaged and happy.
While justifiably proud of our pupils’ academic results, we see education as being so much more than numbers and grades; we believe strongly in an all-round education and are eager for our pupils to enjoy their educational journey, rather than having their heads down as the world passes them by.
In the last decade, we have successfully established the St Gabriel’s Nursery and extended the co-educational offering of our Junior School to the Senior School. The Sixth Form, alongside Year 9, will accept boys from September 2024 with St Gabriel’s becoming fully co-educational in September 2026.
Situated in Sandleford Priory, which dates back to the early Middle Ages, St Gabriel’s is set in a beautiful Grade 1 listed building within Capability Brown parkland, which provides a gracious setting in which to work.
