Lord Wandsworth College

Acres of fun and learning, all 1,200 of them...

Nestled within our stunning 1200 acre campus of soft rolling hills and wooded valleys, there is a school where pupils are thriving. It is a school with an inspirational charitable Foundation, a passion for the individual and one which nurtures character and inner self-confidence. At Lord Wandsworth College, pupils have a voice, alongside a desire to be curious, creative and gain an ever-developing sense of emotional intelligence. We also have a great deal of fun!

Our aim is to shape inwardly self-confident, outwardly modest young men and women who are not only curious and passionate but are ambitious to go and make a positive difference in the world. Our pupils consistently excel in traditional testing, with more than half scoring A* to A grades (or 9s) at GCSE and A Level. More importantly, they are given an education of opportunities. We ensure each pupil is given the opportunity to excel in whatever guise that takes - part of a philosophy that put our senior staff on the i25 shortlist for innovators in education. Pupils work hard inside the classroom, and outside it too, with a wealth of possibilities in sport, the Arts, STEM and our incomparable access to nature, leaving our pupils with a sense of radical optimism - a spirit that says, ‘through perseverance, I can conquer’, our school motto for 100 years.

Beneath wide-open skies, framed by woodland, our landscape entices activity from all who experience it. Our grounds team keep acres of fields to a professional standard – any County club would envy our cricket pitches; many Premiership teams would be happy on our football and rugby grounds. But it’s to the College community that these fields beckon permanent invitation: that’s why we leave balls and other equipment to hand at all times. Opportunity is the watchword: besides our well-known team sport programmes, we have a swimming pool for training or water polo, and partnerships with nearby equestrian, canoeing and tennis facilities. And, of course, miles of pathways on our 1200 acres mean that runners, walkers and mountain bikers, too, will find enchantment in the Hampshire hills.

Happy children are successful children in whatever guise that takes and this is underpinned by our focus on welfare and good mental health; the triumvirate of our +3 philosophy. We won Independent School of the Year for Wellbeing thanks to our emphasis on pupil care. This philosophy is strengthened by our pioneering Parental Engagement Programme which sees parents and staff working closely to develop a common understanding about what great development looks and feels like for our children. Most schools involve parents via reports, emails, parents’ evenings and newsletters; all-important in their own right. However, it is engagement that has produced the greatest effects on student outcomes, whether related to academic results, better mental health or enhanced parent-child relationships. Our focus on developing sustainable relationships enables us - the team around each young person - to develop greater shared understanding. In time, this leads to a more coherent and effective culture around each child and a greater chance of accessing successful outcomes.

Please do visit us and experience all that Lord Wandsworth College has to offer. Walk our landscape and breathe the fresh air. Meet our remarkable pupils and our staff and imagine for yourself, and your children, the thrill of learning and growing in this extraordinary setting.
