Cumnor House Sussex A GSG School

What the school says...

Cumnor House Sussex is one of the country’s leading private Preparatory day and boarding schools for 2-13 year-old boys and girls. Situated in Mid-Sussex, in the village of Danehill, the School is centrally located for travelling within Sussex and is within easy reach of London.

The day that a child steps into Cumnor House Sussex is the start of their journey of discovery. From the Nursery (2-4 year olds), through to the Pre-Prep School (4-8 year olds) and Prep School (8-13 year-olds), Cumnor House Sussex provides a safe and unhurried childhood for active and ambitious children who have the opportunity to learn in state-of-the-art facilities; form close friendships within a nurturing, family environment; and explore and climb trees within the school’s 65-acre surroundings in the heart of the Ashdown Forest.

Our caring, specialist teachers pride themselves on tapping into each child’s individual talent; encouraging and enabling them to reach their personal potential, both inside and outside the classroom. The range of leading senior independent schools that our children move onto and the number of Scholarships achieved is testament to their ability to succeed.

In 2016, 50 children moved onto 18 different senior schools and achieved 33 Awards and Scholarships across Academic, Sport, Art, DT, Drama and Music. Of the current Year 8 children moving on in September 2017, 41 out of 49 are sitting 64 Scholarships to 22 different senior schools.

The Cumnor House Sussex motto - "Aim High, Be Kind, Dare to be Different" - encourages us to seek the best in, and for, each individual child during their time with us and as we help shape their core values for life beyond school. ...Read more
