An adventure in education at Downe House is built on a sense of community, enriched by a full boarding ethos, where every girl is encouraged to be true to herself. A traditional, girls' boarding school with a modern twist. Downe House exists to provide our pupils with, and promote, an excellent holistic education. It aims to enable girls between the ages of 11 - 18 to strive for the highest academic results of which they are capable. At the same time they should enjoy the opportunities and support which allow them to develop the personal, social, spiritual and emotional awareness that is the balance to academic excellence and thus prepares them for adult life and work. Downe House also seeks to enable girls to view life with a true sense of internationalism and to embrace the adventure in education that we offer them at every stage of their time with us.
