School life
With around 480 pupils, Dean Close is a place where all faces are familiar. Based on its strong Christian values and helped by impressive facilities, the atmosphere nurtures not only academic, sporting, artistic and musical talents, but also friendship, integrity and mutual respect. All classrooms, laboratories, library facilities and seminar rooms are fitted to the very highest standards with state-of-the-art technology. Coupled with an excellent teaching staff, this is what accounts for the 98% of pupils who obtain university places each year.
Extracurricular activities
Both music and art are based in modern, purpose-built accommodation, and a superlative 550-seat ‘professional’ theatre produces quality musicals, plays and concerts all year round. These facilities are used partly in the curriculum but also constitute a basis for over 100 clubs and societies. Very fine facilities and coaching lead to excellence in a wide range of sports including hockey, for which there is a double Astroturf pitch, rugby, tennis, athletics, and swimming in a 25-metre indoor pool. A fully equipped gymnasium, squash courts and indoor rifle range support further regular sporting activities alongside more unusual facilities such as a trampolining gym and climbing wall. It is not possible to describe all the facilities in these pages – a visit is essential!
Scholarships and grants
The School has generous scholarship schemes and a leaflet may be obtained from the Registrar. It is possible to apply for these awards – which may be academic, musical, artistic, sporting, or an ‘all-rounder’ – at 11, 13 or 16.
Location
The School sits on the outskirts of Cheltenham town centre which is easily within walking distance. Set in the heart of the Cotswolds, Cheltenham is an acknowledged architectural, cultural and educational centre which is accessible by air (Birmingham/Bristol/Cardiff), rail, coach and is five minutes from the M5.
Open mornings
This year, open mornings will be held on Saturday 24 September and Saturday 12 November 2005, and Saturday 11 March and Saturday 13 May 2006.
Registered Charity No. 1086829
