“Choosing the right school for your child can be a stressful time. Naturally, you want to make sure you are doing the best. You want to prepare your child for adult life. You want to provide them with many and varied opportunities. You want your child to have excellent teachers who are experts both in subject knowledge but also in teaching so that your child can reach their academic potential. You want them to mix with children who will enhance their experience and support them, rather than pull them down. You want a school which has excellent facilities. You want a school which will nurture and support your child as they grow and help to steer them on the right path as they develop.
You will be able to find out a lot about whether Aldenham is the right school for your child by spending some time on this website. I hope you will be able to catch a flavour of this remarkable place and understand why Aldenham is considered one of the outstanding Independent Boarding and Day Schools near London. In the end, you will want to visit us and I look forward to meeting you in person.”
Mrs Alex Hems – Head of Aldenham Foundation
Here we remember that achievement is an individual matter, be it entry to an Oxbridge college, a sporting or cultural goal or perhaps simply growing up into a well-balanced individual (or a combination of these!).
We aim, through emphasis on the pastoral care of individuals, to ensure that each pupil reaches his/her potential academically, socially and in the many cultural, musical and sporting activities available.
Aldenham is known for nurturing and celebrating excellence. Alongside pupils who play for professional football clubs are pupils performing at the highest levels in music, drama and art. Aldenham teams are successful in academic competitions too.
One of the finest boarding schools in London, Aldenham is just 13 miles from the city centre and yet is set in glorious Hertfordshire countryside, providing a spectacular environment in which to live and learn.
Pastoral care influences the tone of the whole school. It is crucial in creating an atmosphere in which young people feel secure and valued as individuals, and are encouraged in their learning, growth and social development.
Aldenham provides a sense of tradition with a modern, forward-looking approach by its professional teaching staff, making Aldenham one of the most desired private schools in and around the London area.
Aldenham School is easily accessible by car, coach and train. From London, you can even take the Jubilee line to Stanmore.
