We are delighted that you are considering Radnor House for the next stage of your child's academic journey. We are renowned for our 'encouragement rather than pressure' approach to educating children, with proven outcomes of not only academic success but in the confident and more importantly, happy young adults who leave us to join the wider world after Sixth Form.
The Senior School is the largest section of the school and comprises Year 7 to Year 11. Through excellent Pastoral Care, clear guidance and a true focus on the individual, pupils in the Senior School are fully supported in achieving their potential, both academically and personally.
The Sixth Form is an exciting time in every young person’s school career where they take the final steps towards adulthood.
In a world that is increasingly competitive, what your child does beyond the classroom is what will make them stand out from the crowd. We have an exciting Extra-Curricular programme which represents a significant element of the educational experience, allowing pupils the opportunities to pursue or develop interests beyond the classroom.
Last week our Year 7s went on an overnight bonding trip to get to know all their new classmates. They got stuck in with caving, archery, climbing and much more, as well as toasting marshmallows by the fire! #RadnorHouse #OutdoorAdventure #BeyondtheClassroom https://t.co/CpF544d6hD

In my assemblies with the pupils this week, I shared with them a few facts and figures that I gleaned from my summer book list, and I read them the introduction to Ed Yong’s ‘An Immense World’ because I had enjoyed it so much. Although I would not describe this year as a bump...

Last week’s blog featured a book called ‘Maths on the Back of an Envelope’ by Rob Eastaway, which might make a useful read for budding mathematicians over the summer. There were just a couple of points that I wanted to finish off before we move on, both related to some of the...
