to Lingfield College

Lingfield College is a vibrant and successful independent day school for children aged 0–18 years, located in the beautiful Surrey countryside on the Kent and Sussex borders, just 40 minutes from London. Our thriving co-educational school blends academic excellence, supportive pastoral care and a rich programme of co-curricular opportunities to inspire, motivate and nurture every pupil.

As a school, we are forward-thinking and aspirational in our learning but thoughtful and grounded in our approach. Being an all-through school creates a family atmosphere, providing a well-rounded, enjoyable and enriching educational experience for all. 

At Lingfield College, we have struck the perfect balance of academic excellence and leading pastoral care. Ours is an environment where pupils are free to be themselves in the knowledge that they are supported, encouraged and respected. In turn, this fosters the confidence to take risks, develop resilience and achieve great things.

Richard Bool, Headmaster
