We offer one of the most immersive and complete educational experiences in the UK. Academic ambition is central to all that we do - underpinned by expert teaching, subject-specific enrichment, and tailored support at every stage. Our pupils consistently achieve excellent results and go on to study at global elite universities across the UK and around the world. We are able to offer an exceptional breadth of GCSE, IBDP and A-Level subject choices - far broader than most schools can provide. This means every pupil can follow a programme of study that’s shaped around their strengths, interests and aspirations. At Charterhouse, education is not one-size-fits-all, it’s personal, and in an increasingly complex and competitive world, this level of personalisation has never mattered more. |
But our vision goes further than grades alone. We are committed to developing genuinely future-ready young people, well-prepared to succeed in a fast-changing world. Our pioneering FutureU programme ensures every pupil builds the skills, mindset and real-world experience they will need to thrive. Our Sixth Form qualification in Applied Entrepreneurship, the first of its kind globally, is just one example of this forward-looking approach. All of this is achieved from within the inspiring architecture and landscape of one of the most remarkable and beautiful school campuses in the world, which includes over 250 acres (or 1,000,000 square metres) of green space. |
