The Curriculum
We provide high quality education; intellectual, moral, technical & physical. We instil a love of learning and endeavour to offer the fullest opportunity to stretch the boundaries of individual ability.
Games & The Arts
Main sports are football, rugby, hockey and cricket, plus a wealth of additional sports available. Outstanding facilities. Drama taught in Year 4 and 5. Plays and musicals staged every term with opportunities for all both on and backstage.
Pastoral Care
It is paramount that every boy is happy and feels secure at school; only then will he be able to engage fully with the academic and extra-curricular activities available. Pastoral care is embedded into everything we do, and the content and rhythm of every day is arranged with pastoral issues at the forefront.
Recent Scholarships
Twenty in 2016 (including three Eton Kings Scholarships) and 11 in 2017. At Summer Fields we nurture the boys academically, morally, spiritually and culturally to develop their confidence and sense of independence. In doing so, we help them to discover talents, interests and values that not only prepare them for the next stage of their education, but which stay with them for life.
