EXPLAINATION

Charterhouse has long been a favourite with parents seeking an all-round, full-boarding school with a strong academic standing; now that it is fully co-ed, it has an even wider appeal. With two brand new boarding houses for boys and immaculately refurbished accommodation for the girls, all set on a campus just over an hour from London, demand for places remains high. As befits a founder of Association Football, this ‘football’ school regularly wins the Independent Schools football competition. Charterhouse’s philosophy of promoting intellectual curiosity and social responsibility, encourages an openness and appetite to try new things. This is clearly displayed in the annual arts festival where pupils have a chance to showcase their creativity. International branches and an online one year 6th form programme is increasing access globally.
