Facilities may be practical rather than cutting-edge and space is at something of a premium, but enthusiasm is palpable. The USP for this school is relationships. There is a family feel despite the different sites and lovely friendships across and between year groups; staff genuinely seem to like each other and there is an inspiring head with a clear vision for the school she leads. Our lasting impression was one of calm industry, organised activity and of genuinely humble, mature and erudite boys. So much going on in so many different places but a pervading sense of purpose, kindness and calm. Good results are the icing on the cake.

Our view
The structure of the Surbiton schools: seven buildings, three schools, some shared facilities, some for the exclusive use of one or the other, and with roads running through the middle of it all, sounds potentially chaotic but it is far from being
