The Inside Scoop from a current parent…
We chose Pangbourne because of its community
and family feel and for the individual care that
each child receives. It’s been brilliant for both our
very different children: one started off shy and
unsure of himself, he’s more of an introspective
artist. The other is outgoing and sporty but with
a short attention span. The teachers and systems
at the College have been excellent at getting the
best out of both boys, academically, socially and
in terms of their emotional development. The
College has a set of Flag Values and we feel like
they really work hard to instill these in all students.
They have taught our children to be resilient, kind,
hardworking, socially confident young adults who
care about others and the world around them.
SE
As parents, we love:
The individual attention is outstanding: staff know
and try to bring out the best in each child.
The community atmosphere. It’s like a family.
The small size. This might be constricting in real
life but in a school, with the kids still finding their
feet, it’s a really supportive atmosphere.
Our children love:
The family atmosphere and boarding; they even
say the food is pretty good!
The lifelong friendships they are making and the
good relationships with their teachers.
That they can be themselves and the space for
their own individual interests.
HEADS UP
“Pangbourne is a place where the
individual matters. We are committed to
the personal development of our pupils in
the fullest sense. They are encouraged to
work hard towards academic success but just
as important is the development of their characters”
Thomas Garnier, Headmaster
