About

Aims & Ethos | Helpful Information | Charterhouse School Founded in 1611, Charterhouse is one of the UK's leading independent boarding and day schools, providing an outstanding education for boys and girls aged 13 to 18. The School is set within an inspiring 250‑acre campus, conveniently located close to London and within 50 minutes of both Heathrow and Gatwick airports.

With 17 grass sports pitches, 3 full‑sized Astroturf pitches, an athletics stadium, a sports centre, 24 tennis courts, and a 9‑hole golf course, not to mention beautiful lawns and gardens, the campus is one of the best, if not the best, in the country.

Combined with a 235‑seat theatre and separate music performance and art display spaces, the School's setting encourages pupils to contribute, and provides a safe community in which to explore and grow.
