Ditcham Park School is a co-educational, independent school for children aged  2 ½ -16, located in the South Downs National Park in Hampshire. The pupil roll is around 350.    

The main part of the school is a Victorian manor house which, in 1940, was requisitioned by the Royal Navy  and used as a convalescent home for sailors. After the war, it became a boys preparatory school run by Douai School Monks. In 1976 Ditcham Park School was founded. The following 40 years saw significant extensions to the school  being made, including a technology and arts building, sports hall and new classrooms.   

Ditcham Park School has a governing council.
