EXPLAINATION

This hugely popular school continues to attract pupils nationally and internationally, attracted by the fast paced environment underpinned by academic rigour and the ability to chart an individual path through their school years. The campus, on the edge of the picturesque town of Marlborough, blends buildings designed by the architect of Buckingham Palace with a neolithic mound reputed to be the burial place of Merlin.  Pastoral care is rooted in a strong ‘House’ system where pupils form life long friendships. Sporting prowess is prized and pupils regularly play at county and country level and across the board there is an expectation that pupils will get ‘stuck in’ and take advantage of the many opportunities offered to them in this busy and purposeful environment.
