Windlesham House

Windlesham House School is one of the oldest independent preparatory schools in the country and the first independent boarding and day school to adopt co-educational for boys and girls aged 4 to 13, with its beautiful campus and countryside area providing a tranquil and peaceful setting for learning and personal growth. Also, the school provides a rich and diverse range of educational opportunities with a strong focus on academic excellence, pastoral care, and outdoor activities over 250 to choose from.

One of the key features of Windlesham House School is its exceptional boarding program, which offers a warm and welcoming home-away-from-home for children who live too far away to travel to school each day. The boarding facilities are modern and comfortable, with spacious dormitories, communal areas, and recreational facilities, including a six-lane indoor swimming pool, tennis courts, a sports hall and a forest school, which allow children to explore and play freely in nature. The boarding staff will take care of every child to ensure that they feel happy and safe. Also, parents who worry about their children can also phone the boarding houses each evening to talk to them.

In terms of academic programs, Windlesham House School has a strong reputation for excellence, with a focus on preparing students for success at entering senior school. As a result, 100% of leavers win places at their senior schools of choice, usually between one to six per school, including Brighton, Eton, Oundle, Stowe and Winchester, and 25% of students win scholarships to their senior schools of choice. The school offers a wide range of subjects, including English, mathematics, science, humanities, arts and trilingual programs such as Spanish, French, Latin, and Mandarin, with a particular emphasis on developing critical thinking skills, creativity, and confidence in all academic areas.

Alongside a strong emphasis on pastoral care, the school recognises that the emotional well-being of students is just as important as their academic progress. The school has a team of experienced and dedicated pastoral staff who provide a range of support services, including counselling, mentoring, and social activities, to guarantee that every child feels valued, respected, and supported.

In summary, Windlesham House School is a highly-regarded independent school, and it is the perfect choice for parents who are looking for a school that will provide their child with the best possible start in life.
