Relocating from London?

Every year, Swanbourne House welcomes families who have chosen to swap city life for the space, community and opportunities offered by Buckinghamshire.

Located in the beautiful village of Swanbourne, just 20 minutes from Central Milton Keynes and within easy reach of London by road and rail, Swanbourne House provides an exceptional independent education for children aged 3 to 13.

For many of our families, moving house also means finding a school where children can quickly settle, make friends and feel part of a community. Our warm and welcoming environment, outstanding pastoral care and strong family ethos help make this transition as smooth as possible.

The Best of Both Worlds

Set within expansive grounds surrounded by open countryside, Swanbourne gives children the freedom to explore, discover and enjoy childhood.

From outdoor learning and sport to creativity, STEM and academic excellence, pupils benefit from a broad education that extends far beyond the classroom. While our setting feels wonderfully rural, families enjoy excellent access to Milton Keynes, Winslow, Buckingham, Leighton Buzzard and the surrounding villages.
