Academic success

We are always very proud of our children’s achievements. Each year the academic profile of a year group is different. As the children all have their own individual strengths, we focus on promoting individual progress by providing support when necessary and always looking for ways to extend their learning.

We also pride ourselves on being a truly independent school, preparing children for their next steps in education in the most suitable setting. We ensure that children from Windlesham are able to access a wide range of schools both in the maintained and the independent sectors. Please see our destination tables for more details.
