Welcome to Brentwood School, one of the UK's leading independent day and boarding schools for boys and girls aged 3 to 18, with a rich history spanning nearly 500 years. Located in the heart of Brentwood, our campus is surrounded by 75 acres of playing fields and gardens.

Our values - Virtue, Learning, Manners - were first penned in 1622 are at the heart of everything we do. They guide our core purpose in helping young people discover and develop their talents with both self-assurance and humility. We prepare our students for a fast-paced and ever-changing world.

They will need to solve problems we don't even know about (in addition to those we do) and many will take on jobs that don't yet exist.

Despite our deep roots, we embrace innovation. For example, in September 2024, we launched a Specialist Music Programme, providing rigorous training and assessment for aspiring musicians within the school curriculum. And, in September 2025, we will open the doors on a state-of-the-art sector-leading boarding house.

The fully-accessible house, which has been years in the planning, will be subdivided into three main sections; a girls' and boys' boarding house and a central shared facility including new dining and communal areas and an outdoor courtyard and dedicated landscaped social space.
