Visiting the School

How do we arrange a visit?

We welcome visits by prospective parents and their sons or daughters during term time.  You can visit as often as you like.

To make an appointment telephone the Admissions Secretary (01439 766863) and she will arrange your visit.

In the normal course of events your visit will include:

      • a tour of the school conducted by a student

      • a visit to at least one house, a meeting with a Housemaster

      • an invitation to lunch

      • an interview with the Headmaster or another senior member of staff

      • We expect a visit to last about four hours.

      If there is anything in particular that you would like

      to see, or anybody in particular you would like to talk to, please do not hesitate to ask and we will do our best to arrange it.  Outside office hours you can leave a message on the voice mail.
