While success is something celebrated, Elstree also encourages pupils to be open, compassionate and tolerant of others. Through enrichment programmes and an outstanding array of extra curriculum activities, Elstree provides an environment where both girls and boys can develop the skills necessary to thrive in today’s world.

Elstree is large enough to accommodate its own Nursery and Pre-Prep, two state of the art Science laboratories, new Music School, full size all-weather pitch, outdoor pool, forest for outdoor learning and camping, and a lake for kayaking, yet with an intake of around 240, is small enough to remain personal and family-focused.

In the school’s last ISI Inspection Report it said: “Elstree School is highly successful in meeting its aim of providing a first class all-round education, while embedding the values of hard work, kindness to others and and making the most of opportunities. This is thanks to an excellent curriculum and extra-curricular opportunities and to excellent teaching, which inspires and motivates pupils to want to learn.”

A weekly London bus collects from Earls Court and Hammersmith on Monday mornings. Daily buses run from Basingstoke and West Reading, with intermittent buses from Brightwalton and Hungerford.

Our next Open Morning is on Saturday 29th February 2020 between 10am and 12 noon.
