Description:
Founded in 1843 as a school for the Sons of Clergy of the Church of
England, it has a delightful setting on the edge of an agreeable
market town. The Marlborough Downs lie to the north, Savernake
Forest to the east, and the Kennet runs through the school grounds.
Its elegant buildings lie amidst fine lawns and gardens, with large
playing fields adjoining them. All facilities are of a high
standard. It pioneered the admission of girls into the sixth form in
1968, and became fully co-educational in 1989. In line with the
terms of its foundation, there is a good deal of emphasis on
Anglican worship and instruction and some services are compulsory. A
large staff allows a staff:pupil ratio of nearly 1:7. Academic
standards are high and examination results consistently very good.
Tremendously strong involvement in music (over 400 pupils learn an
instrument). Also very strong in art and drama (over 15 dramatic
productions a year). There are 34 sports and games on offer and an
outstanding record in these, with county and national
representatives. An excellent range of extra-curricular activities –
some 30 clubs and societies cater for virtually everyone’s
interests. A flourishing CCF contingent and the Duke of Edinburgh’s
Award Scheme is also run; substantial commitment to local community
schemes. There is splendid provision for outdoor activities.
