Nursery & Pre-Prep A structured phonics programme puts a strong emphasis on reading and writing skills, ensuring that most pupils exceed the expectations. Beyond the curriculum we encourage our pupils to take on responsibility and they thrive on Leadership opportunities.
At St Lawrence College we offer a supportive, caring and challenging environment, founded on traditional Christian values, where children are given every opportunity to fulfil their potential. St Lawrence College aims for educational excellence, and nearly all of the Upper Sixth will continue to Higher Education at University.
Founded in 1879, St Lawrence College provides a first-class education for boys and girls from 3 to 18 years. Located on the Kent coast, within easy walking distance of the sea, we are a private school set in a safe, spacious campus housing boarding and day pupils from local, UK and international families.
We have approximately 503 pupils – 150 in the Pre-Prep and Prep School and 353 in the Senior School, of which 175 are boarders (boarding from 7 years of age).
