About Us

Set in a beautiful 50-acre Surrey site, the School enjoys excellent facilities and an aspirational learning environment. Recognised by HM Chief Inspector of Schools as one of England's finest non-selective schools, Gordon's has circa 980 students including 270 residential boarders and a thriving sixth form. In 2025, the percentage of students achieving five or more GCSE grades 9-4, including English and mathematics, was 91%. The A-C pass rate at A-Level was 87%, with 70% of the grades A-B. These results rank Gordon's amongst the top non-selective schools in England for progress and attainment.



Massively over-subscribed, Gordon's size ensures that every student is well known and nurtured as an individual. The School has a very strong emphasis on academic standards, self-discipline and traditional values and aims to be much more than just outstanding examination results, providing abundant opportunities outside the classroom and exceptional pastoral care.

"Gordon's is an outstanding school in every respect." OFSTED

Gordon's is a State Boarding and Day School and is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children - applicants must be willing to undergo appropriate screening including a DBS check and on-line search.
