One of the largest IB World Schools in the world, set on a stunning 128-acre campus in Surrey. Offers the full IB continuum from Early Years through to Diploma with outstanding pastoral care.
The Catch: A massive campus with world-class sports. It's deep in the Surrey commuter belt; without a car, the social life for parents is impossible.
One of England's great public schools, founded in 1572. Full boarding for 830 boys on a historic hilltop campus in North London. Alumni include Winston Churchill, Lord Byron and Jawaharlal Nehru.
The Catch: The hilltop fortress of tradition. Boys only. Full boarding only—no day students. The 'Harrow Straw Hat' culture is iconic but can feel very 'old-world' and insular to modern expat families.
Inside the precincts of Westminster Abbey, one of the most academically elite schools in the world. Offers day and boarding places with exceptional Oxbridge entry rates and a remarkable tradition of intellectual excellence.
The Catch: Inside the precincts of Westminster Abbey. Boys only until 16 (then co-ed). It is a 'City' school with tourists everywhere. Students need to be incredibly mature to handle the freedom of central London.
