Sandroyd School

Sandroyd is an independent co-educational preparatory school for both day and boarding pupils aged 2-13 in Rushmore Park, near the village of Tollard Royal in Wiltshire.Sandroyd is very much a forward-looking preparatory school, well-placed to respond to the ever-changing demands and expectations of new generations of parents and children, built on a heritage of achieving excellence.We are proud of our record of academic success at both Scholarship and Common Entrance level. The Honours Boards tell a consistent tale of excellence in examinations to all leading Public Schools. We recognise too that not all students will learn at the same rate and for those who need extra help with their studies there is a dedicated Learning Support Unit. Sandroyd is about much more than academic success, however. Given our extensive grounds and superb facilities there are countless opportunities for all the pupils to enjoy and develop their favourite sports and to try out new hobbies and activities.In addition to the usual team games for boys and girls there is sailing, judo, golf, riding, archery, fencing, gardening, Natural History and much more besides. The weekends can be an especially busy time for our large number of boarders with expeditions and outings organised by the many staff who live on site. Any school thrives on everyone living together in harmony and working towards shared goals. Yet the hopes and aspirations of the individual are never allowed to take second place. Pastoral care is one of Sandroyd’s great strengths. It is our aim at Sandroyd that days spent here should be exciting, stimulating, rewarding and fun. We offer all our children peaks that can just be climbed with higher ones for tomorrow. Wherever their talents lie we strive to develop them to the full and thus help them to make their way into the competitive world with confidence.
