Our take
Independent co-ed all-through school in Richmond upon Thames for ages 2–19, day or boarding. Selective entry.
- Families wanting one school across the whole journey (ages 2–19) rather than separate prep + senior.
- Families who prefer a co-educational setting over single-sex.
- Families weighing day vs boarding — both are offered.
- Children who can demonstrate strong academics at entry assessment — this is a selective school.
- Fees aren't published. Treat published external fee comparisons with caution and ask admissions directly before shortlisting.
- Selective entry — assume some form of assessment at the relevant entry point. Plan tutoring or familiarisation early if needed.
- SEND provision isn't documented in our profile. If your child has an EHCP or specific learning needs, ask admissions about case-by-case capacity before applying.
