Welcome to Wishford Education

Wishford Education is a group of energetic, happy and high-achieving schools, nurseries and camps across the south of England, each as individual in character as the children who live and learn in them.

1.jpg

No two Wishford schools are alike, ranging from rural stately homes in Gloucestershire to a Tunbridge Wells townhouse. What unites them is a shared ethos, and a determination to create the best possible learning environment, somewhere children are safe and nurtured, and where they are able to access outstanding teaching and opportunities that will broaden their horizons. Wherever our children learn, our focus is on where the real value and benefits of an independent education lie, allowing us to provide an exceptional quality of education while also delivering real value for money.

Our Schools

Each school in the Wishford Education group has its own distinct character, but it is the qualities they share, those that matter most to us, that make them successful.

It starts and ends with the children; how we can best serve them, what will actually make a difference to their experience, and how we can prepare them for the next stage in their education, confident and excited for the challenges ahead. All the schools in our group are entirely committed to this principle, sharing best practice to ensure that every child gets the best possible start in their educational life.
