Local Schools

Where our children spend most of their week and how they are being educated is a decision which should take some serious consideration. We have put together this list of suggestions to make your life a little bit easier. Many local schools and nurseries offer free tours so please go and visit your choice options before making that final important decision.

Enborne C.E. Primary School

Our school is a place where the children come first, they are central to every decision we make. We strive to ensure our children are happy and successful; they grow, during their time with us, to be ambitious and resilient. Our talented teachers inspire and motivate children, encouraging scholarship, intellectual curiosity, independent thought and effective learning habits. We are proud that our children are courageous and learn to behave with integrity.

Brockhurst & Marlston House Schools

Our model of education aims to combine the best features of the single sex and co-educational systems and offers you a unique choice of education which we believe best enables boys and girls to achieve their potential and to develop their self-confidence. We are also a progressive school and aim to be at the forefront of developments in education where we think they will offer benefits to our children and parents.

Kennet School

Our culture of achievement is fuelled by a love of learning, grounded in our core values, and driven by the belief that everyone can succeed. ‘Excellence Through Endeavour’, our school motto, perfectly communicates our belief that through hard work and determination every pupil can achieve things they didn’t think were possible. Our curriculum and co-curriculum offer ensures that during their time with us, pupils gain knowledge, lifelong learning habits, creativity, self-confidence and a social conscience.

Every girl at Downe House is valued, supported and challenged as an individual and provided with an exceptional range of opportunities to explore and develop her strengths. So many things make the difference at Downe – we aim to ignite a love of learning and ensure that when the time comes to leave, she believes she can achieve anything.
