What Sets Us Apart?

Our ethos is expressed in the Aldenham Model of Education, at the heart of which lies the development and well-being of every child. Our approach is one that creates Autonomy, Belonging, Competence and Purpose, all of which are essential for human thriving. Bringing these together drives the positive cycle of motivation and success, spurring each child on to succeed in ways that may look and feel different for everyone. Three strands of school life, academic, co-curricular and pastoral care interlock, providing our students with opportunities to learn, progress and excel. Drawing on the Foundation’s boarding heritage every student is known and enjoys recognition for their contribution to their community of peers and adults, who care about them as individuals

In a setting that needs to be seen to be believed – over 110 acres encompassing woodland, playing fields plus full-sized Astro pitch, tennis courts, dance studio, well-utilised weights room and an enormous sports hall, plus manicured cricket pitches that lie literally at the heart of the school… sport is integral to life at Aldenham and thrives at all levels, from the most elite to the ‘just for fun’.”

Good Schools Guide

This school also gave me the confidence to apply [and get in] to Cambridge by nurturing me as an individual and always encouraging me to pursue my academic interests to the highest levels. I discovered the course when I did my EPQ on the Purposes of Iron Age Remains in Scotland. Doing an EPQ gave me a taste of what studying at university would be like and allowed me to explore my academic interests beyond my A Level subject."

It is a second home, where my children feel warmth, comfort and nurturing. In this environment they have thrived academically and personally.
The staff and management do not switch on at 9 and switch off at 5. They are committed to the children round the clock. The school has a wonderful spirit, it is continually welcoming and alert of each bespoke need. You can put your TRUST entirely in this school. Your child will come out as a well-rounded individual, ready for the real world."
