Cranbrook School

The school is guided by the core values of kindness, integrity, curiosity, aspiration, and individuality. It emphasizes a supportive environment that fosters both academic and personal development.

The academic programme covers the curriculum from Year 7 through to the Sixth Form, where students pursue A-Level courses. Sixth Form students also participate in the Cranbrook Diploma, which complements their academic studies. The school provides a structured careers programme and exam preparation support.

The school maintains a dedicated Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCO) to oversee learning support. Pastoral care is integrated into the school's structure to support student wellbeing across both day and boarding populations.

The school offers day places for entry in Year 7 and Year 9, as well as boarding places for students in Years 9 through 13. Prospective families are encouraged to attend open events, and individual tours can be arranged for boarding applicants, particularly those travelling from overseas. Admissions policies, criteria, and information regarding scholarships and bursaries are available through the school's admissions team.

Located in the Weald countryside, the campus features dedicated boarding houses including School Lodge, Cornwallis, Crowden, Rammell, Blubery, and Scott. The school grounds house the Queen’s Hall Theatre, a medical centre, and various sports and catering facilities. The site is situated 50 miles from London with access via the M25 and M20 motorways.
