What makes Windlesham House a special place to learn and grow?
At Windlesham House School, we are proud of our rich heritage and tradition as the oldest prep school in the country, whilst embracing innovation and change to ensure that we are preparing our pupils to be successful, high-achieving and accomplished young people.
Our magnificent country setting within the South Downs National Park and state-of-the-art facilities enable us to provide an exciting and innovative curriculum in a safe, nurturing and inspiring environment. The opportunities are varied and inclusive, allowing children to be involved, follow their interests, take risks and build lifelong passions.
Our community is built on the values of respect, creativity and courage, with all children feeling secure, happy and able to flourish. From the moment you step onto our 70 acre estate, you will feel the warmth and energy that makes Windlesham House such a special place for children to grow.
How does Windlesham House prepare children for their future?
Academic rigour and challenge are important to us. We want all pupils to achieve their potential within a supportive environment where learning is creative, engaging and accessible. Our unique ACE Habits for Learning, active learner, critical thinker and explorer, are embedded in all aspects of teaching and learning, allowing children to develop essential skills and become independent learners.
These habits are not just classroom concepts; they are woven into every aspect of school life, from problem-solving in mathematics to creative thinking in drama, and from scientific investigation to outdoor exploration in our beautiful grounds.
What can you expect when you visit Windlesham House?
One thing I always notice about the school is the tangible sense of excitement, purpose and energy everywhere I go. All academic subjects, creative arts, sports and co-curricular activities are taught in well-equipped specialist areas by teachers with passion for their subjects as well as love for their pupils.
Children are inspired and motivated every day within a caring community. It is a joy to hear children excitedly talking to their parents about what they are learning, how their match went or what they did at breaktime. This enthusiasm for school life is what makes Windlesham House truly special.
Whilst our website will give you a good idea of everything Windlesham House has to offer, there can be no substitute for a personal visit. We invite you to experience our vibrant, happy community firsthand and see why families consistently choose Windlesham House for their children’s education.
I look forward to welcoming you to the school very soon.
Best wishes
