“This school really encourages you to be an individual, it doesn’t shape you in a certain way like other schools might. It encourages you to be yourself, and be successful as yourself.”
Gabriel, Lower Sixth
At its core, a Leighton Park education focuses on the individual and the promise of choice.
Our ethos informs an approach where students are able to follow their most impassioned interests, become active learners and succeed as themselves. The success of our academic approach is demonstrated by 94% of our Sixth Form leavers last year achieving their first UCAS choice and our small cohort IB results place us in the top 3 coeducational boarding schools in the UK.
All our students benefit from small class sizes, the average is 16 students per class - going down to 7 students in Sixth Form. Our location, 35 minutes from London, creates unrivalled opportunities for students to enrich and contextualise their learning.
We believe that our greatest strength is the way we quietly balance a wonderful sense of calm with an incredible amount of activity and dynamism, creating an environment where students are encouraged to try a huge range of new experiences and develop theirgreatest talents. Come and see our beautiful grounds, talented students and welcoming school for yourself.
