Wychwood School (Oxford) Ltd

Wychwood is a unique and friendly day and boarding school for girls aged 11-18, with excellent academic grades and outstanding pastoral care. Situated in the heart of Oxford, the school offers an exceptional education for pupils of all abilities through its small class sizes which allow for extensive individual attention without intense pressure. Established in 1897, individuality has always been more important than conformity at Wychwood and the girls have opportunities for success in many directions. The School prides itself on giving each pupil the consideration and total support of a highly dedicated staff, enabling them to discover, realise and exceed their potential. Academic results at Wychwood, while consistently excellent, are certainly not our only measure of your daughter’s success. Of equal importance is our desire to develop girls of integrity, confidence, resilience, tolerance and self-worth. We aim to bring them into the world brimming with all the necessary resources to succeed professionally, socially and emotionally. Our small class sizes provide an unpressured family atmosphere. Staff gain an uncommon knowledge and understanding of your daughter, enjoying the freedom to teach and support her as the unique individual that she is. The diverse curriculum is well considered and tailored specifically to your daughter’s particular strengths and needs. Such close attention and encouragement provide your daughter with the opportunity to thrive and to achieve her very best. Wychwood will provide your daughter with a safe, happy and comfortable environment. The attentive pastoral care from teaching staff and progress tutors is supported further by the important role of our Housemothers or Housesisters, girls who are specially selected to offer individual guidance, comfort and friendship to those joining the school. Boarding is available on a full, weekly or flexi basis, designed to fit in with the lives of busy parents and to offer the girls the chance to develop a broad range of interests, respect for others and a sense of independence and self-motivation. Boarders share rooms in small mixed age groups and enjoy a sisterly, social bond with peers. As your own daughter grows older she can enjoy the benefits that come with growing up in a vibrant city – the theatres, cinemas, museums, parks and shops of Oxford being only a short walk away.
