St George's School Ascot Trust

The school aims to provide a broad, modern, and dynamic education that encourages pupils to flourish academically, creatively, physically, and morally. It fosters a community where individuals are known and valued, promoting self-awareness, humility, and a sense of service. The school emphasizes the development of confidence and character, encouraging pupils to take risks, pursue their passions, and engage with the world beyond the classroom.

The curriculum covers a broad range of subjects, including Art, Business, Drama, Economics, English, Food Preparation & Nutrition, Geography, History, ICT & Computer Science, Mathematics, Modern Foreign Languages, Music, PE, Politics, Psychology, Religious Studies, and Science. In the Sixth Form, pupils typically study three A Level subjects and complete the Extended Project Qualification (EPQ). The school also offers an International Immersion Programme and additional language tuition in subjects such as Arabic, Chinese, German, Japanese, Italian, and Russian.

St George’s pupils achieve strong academic results, with 62% of GCSE grades at 9–7 and 43% of A Level grades at A–A* in 2025. The school maintains a 100% pass rate at A Level, and leavers progress to a variety of university and career destinations. The school’s academic standards and pastoral care are designed to foster confidence, character, and the skills necessary for life beyond school.

The school provides tailored academic support, leveraging small class sizes to stretch high-achieving pupils while offering additional assistance to those who require it. Dedicated staff provide extra support outside of the classroom, and the school offers English as an Additional Language (EAL) tuition for international pupils. Digital learning is integrated into the curriculum, with all pupils in Years 7–11 issued a school-managed Chromebook.

St George’s Ascot is an independent day and boarding school for pupils aged 11–18. The admissions process is managed by a dedicated team that guides families through entry for senior school and Sixth Form, with the school preparing to welcome boys and girls into Years 7 and 9 from September 2027. Prospective families are encouraged to visit the school to meet staff and pupils, and the school offers various scholarships and bursaries.

The school operates on a three-term academic year (Autumn, Spring, and Summer). Each term includes scheduled half-term breaks and exeat weekends. The school day begins at 8:15 am, and term dates are punctuated by significant events such as Prize Giving, the Carol Service, and Spring Term Awards.

Located on a 30-acre site in Ascot, the campus features a 25m, 6-lane indoor swimming pool, a 300-seat theatre, a dance studio, and a Technogym fitness suite. Academic facilities include a purpose-built library, science centre, ICT labs, and dedicated studios for art, textiles, photography, and music, including a recording studio. Sports facilities comprise a large sports hall, eight tennis courts, six floodlit netball courts, three football pitches, a sports pavilion, and indoor cricket nets. Boarding is provided in three family-style houses, with one dedicated to the Upper Sixth.

The school offers over 70 clubs, including Amnesty International, Duke of Edinburgh, horse riding, and a Year 7 choir. The co-curricular programme encompasses 18 sports—such as netball, football, cricket, swimming, athletics, badminton, and tennis—alongside extensive opportunities in performing arts, music, and drama. Pupils are encouraged to participate in local, national, and global experiences, including outreach and connections with the wider community.
