​Downe House, an independent boarding school for girls, recently welcomed local MP for Newbury, Laura Farris, onto its campus in Cold Ash, for an inspiring careers talk with its sixth form students.

Downe House has a long and proud history of providing an outstanding education for young people. We are delighted to have partnered with Royal National Children's SpringBoard Foundation (RNCSF) which will enable us to widen our reach to others who would not usually be able to access a Downe House education.

On Thursday 16th June, Downe House hosted a conference for pastoral and safeguarding professionals in education - ‘Raising Respect’. The School welcomed delegates from both boarding and day schools, spanning the independent and state sectors.

David McClymont, Director of IT of Downe House School, reflects on the use of technology in schools during lockdown.

The Governors of Downe House have announced they are working in partnership with the Oman Ministry of Defence Pension Fund to open Downe House Muscat, the first girls-only, day school in the Middle East founded by a British girls' school.
