Lancing College

Lancing College is a highly successful boarding school with an outstanding reputation. Located in several hundred acres of the magnificent South Downs National Park, it is only one hour from London and convenient for both Heathrow and Gatwick airports.


Pupils at Lancing benefit from a genuinely all-round approach: excellent academic results are achieved within an environment where pupils are given a wide range of opportunities to explore and develop through over 100 co-curricular activities. Lancing is also highly regarded for its music and arts and our most talented pupils go on to
study at prestigious music schools. Our pupils have different gifts and personalities, Lancing’s strength is to support them in exploring their talents and making the most of them, as well as pushing them out into new ventures.


Lancing welcomes pupils from over 40 different countries creating an amazing, kind and friendly community - inclusive, diverse and globally aware. The College has ten Houses where boys and girls stay for the duration of their time at Lancing. Each House becomes a real home, a place where pupils build lifelong friendships and are cared for by a dedicated Housemaster or Housemistress. Lancing is noted for its strong and collaborative Global alumni who continue to be supportive of their former school.

There is something special about Lancing, where tradition results in subtle transformation and the ‘right level of pressure’ yields both academic and personal success.
