Gosfield School offers a rich and varied environment where your children will flourish.
The School, founded in 1929, is now a charity and still occupies the same magnificent Victorian country house situated in over 100 acres of parkland. The estate is bordered by ancient woodland and visitors are overwhelmed by the wildlife living within our boundaries.
The grounds are a superb setting for nature trails and for a variety of outdoor projects and activities. Pupils are able to enjoy these grounds and benefit considerably from leisure areas which promote a culture of well being and security.
Our pupils are a credit to the school, they are polite and well mannered. Our expectations are high and they aspire to meet the standards set.
We feel that pupils must be happy and secure in their learning; Gosfield School offers that and much more. Our caring and dedicated staff know pupils well and work with them to ensure they progress effectively both academically and socially. In our care pupils develop confidence and respect for both their peers and adults. They enjoy the challenges offered and the opportunities to stretch themselves in a variety of directions.
Gosfield has a long tradition of providing a small and caring environment enabling pupils to achieve their very best.
