Chigwell School
Chigwell School Sixth Form is the pinnacle of secondary education where students enjoy a rich and full education, experience leadership opportunities and are well prepared for A levels, life at university and the world of employment.
“We have a unique, family-style boarding community with small, friendly houses run by academic staff.”
The Sixth Form is a vibrant part of the School, and students gain a greater sense of responsibility, freedom and purpose. Students achieve impressive exam results year after year, and go on to study at top institutions such as Oxbridge, Imperial and LSE and well known international universities like Yale and Harvard.
We have a unique boarding community, designed especially for international students coming to study A levels in the UK. Overseas boarders at Chigwell get the best of the British education system, supported by experienced staff. Students live in family boarding houses in the school grounds – each house has just seven or eight students, with a mix of different nationalities, cared for by House Parents who are also academic staff.
