Closer than you think… Founded in 1847, Taunton School is one of the South West’s leading co-educational independent day and boarding schools for children aged 0 – 18 years. Set in a beautiful 50 acre site, Taunton School nurtures the individual in a friendly and broadminded atmosphere, equipping our young people with the life skills to enable them to fulfil their potential. Four Schools in One… Consisting of four Schools, Taunton is very much the sum of its parts. Created from traditional roots, Taunton is formed of a caring and experienced First Steps Nursery and Pre Preparatory School, inspiring Preparatory School and an innovative Senior School. Taunton School aspires to offer a complete journey of education and growth to all children and young adults revealing the talent within every individual and raising expectations. Home from Home… The School offers a supportive boarding environment for children from 7 – 18 years. At the Preparatory School level; aged 7 – 13 years, boarding life is very much an extension of family life, with small dormitories for girls and boys and excellently equipped common rooms and recreational areas. At this level focus is on support for the children to learn to do things for themselves and become more confident ready for the exciting challenges ahead. In the Senior School boarding environment, our young adults have access to abundant cultural and sporting activities. With close friends at hand they have the opportunity to develop life skills within a relaxed but well controlled atmosphere. In the 6th form, the boarding life encourages each pupil to make the most of the wide range of opportunities available to allow them to move smoothly towards higher education and the world of work. Although the emphasis is on academic study, at Taunton we ensure that our older individuals do not loose sight of their other opportunities and their social interests.
