At Ardingly, our commitment to maintaining small pastoral groups and our outstanding pastoral care means that every student is known and valued as an individual; no one will be left behind or overlooked. We provide the breadth of opportunities, choice of academic pathway and expert support to help each and every student find their passion and develop their individual talents, while fostering the aptitudes and personal qualities they will need to thrive in a rapidly changing world.
"I really appreciate the small Tutor groups and feel like my Tutor has really got to know me as an individual.”
Tutor Support
“I am equipped with the skills I will need to succeed in a changing world of work.”
Enterprise & Employability
“I have been stretched and challenged academically and appreciate all the academic enrichment initiatives available to me.”
Academic Enrichment & Extension
“I am comfortable in my own skin and am able to advocate effectively, while empathising with and respecting differing viewpoints.”
Society & Me
"I have a global perspective, while being engaged in initiatives to improve my local community."
Local & Global
“I really enjoy the range of clubs and activities that are available under the enrichment programme. I’ve tried new things and found new hobbies that I never would have had the chance to try at my old school.”
Clubs & Activities
“I’m so pleased I had the choice to study IB or A-level and very much valued the advice and insight that my teachers gave in helping me to decide which would be the best path for me.”
Sixth Form Experience
“I feel like the emphasis at Ardingly is on stretching yourself to reach your own challenge grades, rather than competing with your classmates.”
Academic Ethos
A vibrant, diverse, inclusive community.
Ardingly is an English school with a global perspective; we believe this diversity is a key strength. Around 20% of our senior school students live overseas, from 30+ different countries. These boys and girls greatly enrich our community, while broadening the horizons of the remaining 80% of students, who live in Sussex, Surrey, Kent and London. Being World Ready, however, is about more than having a global perspective – it is about being equipped with the mindset, aptitudes and skills our students will need to succeed in a fast-changing world beyond school.
