Read School is a boarding and day school of approximately 300 boys and girls ages 3 – 18.
The school is a registered charity and exists to provide an all-round education for its pupils, combining tradition with the best of modern practice.
In a Senior School of around 240 and a Preparatory School of about 60, with around forty members of teaching staff, it is possible for every pupil to have an influence in the school. You are never new here for long and those joining the school are quickly assimilated into the busy routine. Everyone is important and everyone makes a contribution for the good of the school.

Education at The Read School is designed to provide the boys and girls with the skills necessary to enable each to participate effectively in their life beyond the classroom.
