Innovation and individuality are celebrated, and outstanding academic success is applauded. Students thrive amid high expectations and the joy of authentic learning experiences. Through the lens of intercultural competency, we inspire students to engage with others across lines of difference in a changing world.

St. John's is an independent, co-educational day school presenting a 13-year sequence of college preparatory training. A non-profit institution, it was founded in 1946 to provide the community with a school of exacting standards in the development of individual, spiritual, ethical, intellectual, social and physical growth. While the means to achieve that purpose may change, it remains the basic mission of the School. The School seeks to develop the whole person in preparation for a lifetime of personal fulfillment and contribution to society. In particular, it is dedicated to the enhancement and the expansion of future leadership for Houston and the country. The School offers talented, motivated and energetic students a genuine challenge for academic accomplishment and for development of a sense of self-worth and of personal responsibility. The School in turn holds itself responsible for providing that challenge.

Cranleigh School and Cranleigh Prep School are leading co-educational weekly boarding and day schools set in a stunning rural location in more than 280 acres on the edge of the Surrey Hills. Our two beautiful campuses are exceptionally well equipped, with outstanding classroom, studio, performance and sports facilities. Pupils join our senior school from a wide variety of other prep schools across London and the Home Counties, creating a lively, House-based community of young people who are drawn together by their inherent love of life and getting involved in everything Cranleigh has to offer. Ours is a vibrant school that is large enough for diverse opportunities and yet small enough for every individual pupil to be known, supported and encouraged, whatever activities they undertake. The range of choices available across all year groups is designed to broaden horizons and offer both challenges and opportunities to flourish. A high staff to pupil ratio, dedicated House staff and a nurturing tutor system all ensure that pupils’ personal wellbeing is paramount; and discipline is maintained through mutual respect. Cranleigh demonstrates powerfully that academic success does not have to be achieved at the expense of excellence in co-curricular activity. Our examination achievements and university entrance are the best ever. We also continue to achieve exceptional results in a broad range of national sporting competitions. Above all Cranleigh School puts the child first in our decision making, with a focus on the holistic development of young people, supporting a strong education ethic and a day that is built around the motto, which is Ex Cultu Robur (from our culture comes strength). Please come and see our Schools for yourself. You will be most welcome and we look forward to meeting you.
