Caroline Chisholm is an oversubscribed, academically successful all-through (aged 4-19) school that strives to develop individuals into ambitious, highly successful, happy and resilient young adults.  We make learning enjoyable from reception year right up to the sixth form.  We provide a challenging academic curriculum, coupled with a very supportive pastoral system that values the strengths and talents of the individual student.

In May 2025, we were delighted to maintain our standing of Good overall, with our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) remaining Outstanding. 

The school has constructed an ambitious and well-designed curriculum for pupils. The curriculum clearly outlines the knowledge and skills that pupils will learn from the early years foundation stage through to the sixth form.
