Why should your children come to Swanbourne House? PDF Print E-mail
  • Your children will be in the care of committed and dedicated staff.
  • We offer a broad education including Latin, unless a child needs help with Extra English.
  • We encourage ideas and a passion for knowledge in staff and pupils.
  • We teach study skills and, in some subjects, accelerated learning techniques.
  • There is a joy in the Swanbourne House education and a strong sense of the family-style community.
  • We promote self-discipline, not a brash, authoritarian approach which leaves children at sea when the boundaries shift.
  • We offer flexible boarding.
  • In the Prep School, the Heads’ vision is that participation is as important as competition; every child gets on stage through singing or drama and every child joins a group coached by a sports specialist.
  • We recognise strengths and talents and run teams at several ability levels in the early years of the Prep School and then run many competitive teams as the pupils become older. 
  • Christian values underpin the life of the School.
  • We take as much notice of tears as of laughter.
  • When you walk into the School, your sixth sense tells you that the ethos in this School makes a difference. The children are happy and you wish you were coming here yourself.
