Chetwynde is a non-selective independent day school for boys and girls from the ages of 3 to 18. When the Sisters of the Sacred Heart of Mary opened a small preparatory school in 1938, little did they know that it would develop to become one of the most successful independent schools in the country.
Chetwynde provides an education that is supportive, challenging and inspiring – a balance between traditional values and a dynamic, forward-thinking approach – giving students the foundations they need for an exciting future.
Every child has talents; every child is special and deserves the best. From nursery years through to graduation from the sixth form, children benefit from outstanding teachers, great facilities and many opportunities to blossom beyond the classroom. Pupils, whether in the Kindergarten or the Sixth Form, feel part of an inclusive and supportive community and mix happily: Chetwynde is an environment that inspires them to achieve their fullest potential.
