What the school says...
The Acorn School is a co-educational, independent school in Gloucestershire, known for its unique approach in providing an outstanding holistic education for children age 6 to 18.

Every student who has applied to university direct from The Acorn School has achieved a place, without state examinations. Furthermore, we have received Outstanding Ofsted reports in 2005, 2009, and 2012, concluding that: Students leave the school as well educated, intelligently-opinionated, free-thinking adults (Ofsted, 2012). ...Read more
