Dauntsey’s School

Founded in 1542, Dauntsey's is a leading co-educational boarding and day school where tradition is combined with a forward-looking approach to education. Set within 150 acres of beautiful Wiltshire countryside, the school provides an inspiring environment in which pupils can learn, grow and flourish.

At the heart of a Dauntsey's education is a commitment to developing the whole person. While academic excellence is highly valued, equal importance is placed on nurturing curiosity, resilience, character and a sense of responsibility. Pupils are encouraged to embrace challenge, think independently and contribute positively to their communities.

The school's values of ambition, bravery and compassion underpin every aspect of school life. Whether in the classroom, on the sports field, on stage or at sea, Dauntsey's inspires young people to step beyond their comfort zones, build confidence and leadership, and realise their full potential.
