Life at Windlesham

Windlesham is a warm, open school, nurturing children from Pre-prep at Little Windlesham right through to Common Entrance, enabling each child to flourish in his or her own way, building confidence and forging friendships for life. Windlesham children are happy and open, as well as interested in learning and gaining new experiences. Each pupil receives individual attention and is encouraged to develop his or her own varied talents with strong adult support.

Pupils grow in confidence and self-esteem because their contributions in different fields are valued and encouraged.

Having fun is an essential ingredient of life at Windlesham. The school achieves this in the classroom, on the sports field, through music and drama, as well as from a choice of more than 250 activities, from rug-making to wind-surfing.

Every child is unique and Windlesham offers an exceptional environment in which a child’s individuality is cherished. Teachers at Windlesham work closely with parents to enable their children to flourish and develop into self-assured individuals, confident to take the next steps in their learning journey.

Parents seeking a boarding education will want their children to look back on that time, as the ‘best days of their lives’. Windlesham is proud of its clear ethos and warm atmosphere, where each child is valued as an individual and learns to value others. School is more like home, whilst home is never like school.

Classroom results are an important aspect of life at Windlesham, without dominating everyone’s lives. The school strives to extend the creative as well as the intellectual side of the brain. Considerable emphasis is placed on music, art, pottery, design, drama and dance.

There are also opportunities to represent Windlesham in an exceptional range of team games and sports played in wonderful grounds.
