We welcome agents and international families to come and visit Leweston. We are proud and passionate about our beautiful, inspiring and safe environment where our pupils feel comfortable to grow in knowledge, talents and confidence. Individuality and diversity are celebrated at Leweston and we pride ourselves on our ability to unleash the potential of every pupil; discovering and encouraging talents - whatever they may be - in a supportive co-educational environment, spanning nursery to Sixth Form.

Along with our excellent academic curriculum we offer a wide range of extra-curricular and sporting activities with our Pentathlon, Equestrian and Swimming programmes being amongst the leading in the country. Our Equestrian Centre attracts both UK and international young riders to join Leweston as part of a successful, competitive equestrian team; but equally welcomes those that wish to try riding for the first time or who would prefer not to compete.

Leweston is a school founded on Catholic faith which welcomes pupils of all faiths and none.

We are a bustling, friendly, English country school with much to offer international students: a warm and caring boarding environment with small numbers, a variety of different nationalities and plenty of opportunity to make friends with British pupils and improve English skills.

Weekends at school are busy with sporting fixtures, trips and activities but also with plenty of time to also rest, relax and spend time with friends. Visit our website to find out more or, better still, we welcome agents and families to visit our school to get a real sense of our community, ethos and culture and to see our happy students in their school environment.
