A number of pupils also go on to attend universities overseas with US universities becoming increasingly popular.
HISTORY

In 1871 it moved from Clapton to Watford, and in 1946 to its present site in Cobham, Surrey. A boarding Foundation School until 1958, it then expanded to take fee paying boarders and, in the mid 1960’s, day boys.

The purposeful and nurturing ethos of the School, where there is a love of learning and where we seek to develop the self-esteem and character of each individual, is at the heart of our pupils’ successes.
