Ditcham Park School, just outside Petersfield, is a co-educational Independent School for boys and girls aged rising 3 – 16 situated in the middle of the South Downs National Park, with spectacular views of the rolling Hampshire hills and south across the Solent as far as the Isle of Wight.
Our aim is to provide an outstanding education, which equips our pupils with excellent academic qualifications and self-confidence and prepares them for the future. We believe that children learn best and develop self-confidence and self-esteem when they are encouraged in a caring and supportive environment.
Our relatively small size enables Ditcham Park to be a genuinely friendly, happy school where 'every child is known and valued'.'
Small class sizes, excellent teaching, strong pastoral care, a focus on technology and creativity and opportunities for personal development through sport, the arts and outdoor activities set on a beautiful 16-acre site are key features of the education our pupils receive.
