From the Henley In Arden School
Henley-in-Arden School, tucked away in the centre of rural Warwickshire, is a gem in the field of education.
Since families are no longer limited to selecting a school within their own local authority, more and more parents are learning about our 650 student secondary school as a result of the demand for school places in Solihull and Birmingham and a growing desire for a smaller, friendlier school experience.
Despite being a smaller school, we nonetheless provide a wide selection of extracurricular activities, such as our own equestrian team and other highly popular sports clubs.
Our focus on the performing arts stands out in particular.
Additionally, we have a clear focus on academic success.
Our academic performance in 2018 placed us in the top 20% of schools in the country, and many of our students transferred to esteemed sixth forms.
Families now have a variety of schools to pick from because they are no longer limited by old-fashioned "catchment zones."
However, it never ceases to amaze us how many families are unaware that a school like Henley-in-Arden is a possibility for them.
