Set in 200 acres of stunning Suffolk countryside overlooking the Stour Estuary and within an hour of London, the Royal Hospital School is a leading co-educational
boarding and day school for 11-18 year olds, providing a full and broad education, fit for the modern world. The boarding experience is central to the school’s educational philosophy – a moral compass for personal development. Founded in 1712 in Greenwich to provide education for children of naval seafarers, the school moved to Suffolk in 1933 and has continued to grow in reputation to become one of UK’s leading independent schools.

A learning environment where traditional inspires innovation and pupils are stretched and challenged beyond the mainstream curriculum. With a pupil body of around 642 pupils, approximately 50% are boarders, our campus provides an exceptional environment for our pupils to enjoy during the school day, but also in the evenings and at weekends; these include our coffee shop, gym, astro, tennis and netball courts, music school, art & DT rooms, football pitches, swimming pool, sports hall, climbing wall, golf course, plus stunning walks to our local beach.

RHS has a long history of welcoming pupils from service families and offers tailored financial, academic and pastoral support to ensure every pupil thrives. Forces families in receipt of the MoD Continuity of Education Allowance (CEA) are offered a discounted full boarding fee.
