We are delighted to welcome you to Wotton House. We are a thriving school community committed to partnering with like-minded families to develop the character, intellect and purpose of our students.

​Today's students are facing an unpredictable, rapidly changing future. Conventional GCSE education works students hard to prepare them for a world which is disappearing fast and in many respects is already obsolete. It forces students to sit exams testing the wrong skills, in the wrong subjects and at the wrong age.

​We are proud to be an International Baccalaureate® World School. This means that we are part of a global community of over 5,000 schools worldwide linked by a shared commitment to the IB mission 'to develop inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.'

​Our small class sizes, real-world learning experiences and passionate, supportive staff combine to create a safe but inspiring learning environment where different types of intelligence are valued and can come to flourish.

​We invite you to visit Wotton House to see if this education resonates with you.

Wotton House International School is based in the heart of Gloucester and is part of the International Village Education group. Our mission is to actively help children develop the confidence, skills and knowledge necessary to thrive in the modern world.

​Our educational ethos is encapsulated in the African proverb “it takes a village to raise a child” - supporting your children to excel in the context of their local, national and global communities. This ethos incorporates three, related, ideas:

• Education is not just the responsibility of the teacher but also of the wider community; children today grow up in an unregulated global village and need guidance more than ever to navigate it safely
• Being ‘educated’ has many facets and angles, and that each child has many different gifts, not all of which are catered for by traditional in-a-box classroom learning
• Our school must explicitly provide some networks of support, connections and contacts; it is not enough to send a child into the world with nothing but certificates under their arm
