About

Claremont Fan Court School is a thriving, co-educational independent day school in Surrey for pupils aged 2½ to 18. Founded in 1922, we are approaching our 100th anniversary as an evolving, successful school.
Our Senior, Preparatory and Pre-Preparatory and Nursery Schools are home to over 950 pupils and have 240 teaching and support staff. In the last three years, applications to the school have doubled. Our results are better than ever and our focus on character quality and pupil-wellbeing has allowed our pupils and staff to thrive during the current coronavirus pandemic.

Our school motto, ‘Be Strong in Understanding’, drives everything we do. We know that if pupils understand themselves and their place in the school community, it gives them a unique strength.

Although we are just 20 miles from central London, with easy access to the A3, M3 and M25, Claremont’s historic 100 acre estate is an oasis of calm from the outside world. Landscaped by Capability Brown almost 250 years ago, our grounds boast sweeping views, beautiful green space and a truly unique atmosphere which forms a lasting memory for pupils and staff.
The mansion sits at the centre of our site, and beyond its grand façade still retains a welcoming, homely feel for our Senior School and sixth form. The mansion’s stable block is now our Preparatory School (currently undergoing refurbishment), and the Pre-Preparatory and Nursery School are situated within a purpose-built structure backing on to a forest school, and woods and wild meadows beyond.

The next stage in our evolution promises to be our most exciting yet. We are investing in our facilities, from the brand-new Sir Sydney Camm science and technology building opened in 2019, to a purpose-built sixth form centre and the refurbishment of the Preparatory School, we are ensuring our pupils have the very best for the next 100 years.

We are proud that our pupils become caring, confident and contributing members of society. They learn and model this behaviour shown by our excellent, committed teaching and support
