About Claires Court Schools
Claires Court Schools are proprietarily owned and operated by Hugh and James Wilding. For those who like their historical facts, Claires Court first opened its doors as a preparatory school in September 1960 led by David and Josephine Wilding – parents of the current owners. In those days Claires Court was a boarding school and Ridgeway one of the boarding houses.
As the demand for boarding reduced, the School gradually moved to a day school to 13 years of age, extending over the years to add GCSE and thus a leaving age of 16.
In 1993 College came under the Claires Court umbrella adding co-ed Nursery provision and in 1994 the co-ed Sixth Form started with 19 boys and 1 girl!
Here therefore was the birth of our unique education – the statutory school years of education with boys and girls separate but meeting for extra curricular activities, the performing arts, departmental trips and so on.
Our achievements are many and varied – never assume that academic excellence is sufficient for our pupils – we want them to experience and achieve so much more and because of this, we offer an absolute fountain of opportunity to ensure that our boys and girls emerge into the world of work or university as well balanced individuals able to move forward in confidence and with competence.
Co-ordinated education for girls and boys from 2 to 18 years
Co-ordinated education means that boys and girls are educated separately but meet together with such activities as sailing, rowing, performing arts as well as day trips and field study courses – the best of both worlds!
Our Nursery and Sixth Form are co-ed whilst the 4 to 16 year olds are educated separately.
We achieve outstanding results at all levels throughout the School with an intake that is non-selective – entry is by report from previous school and interview with the Head.
We aim to educate the whole child, treating each boy or girl as an individual and ensuring they achieve their maximum potential – sometimes far beyond what they believed they were capable of achieving.
Not only are our results excellent, we offer a school day that is brimming with opportunity and variety – both inside the classroom and out.
