The Dulwich School Cranbrook

The Dulwich School Cranbrook is a co-educational school for pupils aged rising 3 to 16 years old, with a flexible boarding offer for children aged 9 to 13. We are located in 50 acres of stunning grounds within the Weald of Kent, just an hour out of London.

Dulwich is a forward-thinking, passionate teaching community, with outstanding pastoral care and superb facilities. Our thoughtfully designed teaching spaces grow with our pupils, ensuring a relevant, engaging environment at every stage of their journey through the school.

Nash House (Early Years) offers a smaller, nurturing environment for our youngest children within a new, state-of-the-art facility. Here the focus is on fostering independence and curiosity, and creating a solid learning foundation from which our pupils can transition seamlessly into the Prep (Years 1 – 6). The majority of the Prep years are spent in Little Stream, a vibrant, stimulating space, with an exciting clubs offer, specialist teachers and a caring ethos which enables our pupils to take risks and challenge themselves.

From September 2023, Dulwich is expanding its Senior School from Years 7 and 8 to include Years 9, 10 and 11. Our Senior School offers an academically ambitious, forward-looking approach to the curriculum, a broad choice of study through to GCSE and a real focus on the individual. The first cohort will progress into Year 9 in September 2023; they will move through the school to be our first Year 11 students, taking GCSE examinations in the Summer of 2026.

We are transforming our Senior School building into an inspirational space for older students. This will include a lecture theatre, break-out study areas and social spaces. A student café will sit at the heart of the building, providing our older cohorts with their own indoor and outdoor areas in which to relax between lessons.

Pupils go deeper and further with a subject they love. The happier and more engaged they are, the more they will achieve. A wide range of GCSE choices will be on offer so that pupils can marry their passion and talent, in order to discover their element.
