Thorpe House School is an independent day school for boys in Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire. A truly unique school in the local area, we offer our boys a bespoke learning journey from when they join Thorpe Explorers’ Nursery aged 3 through to 16 when they complete their GCSE examinations.
Co-educational schools cannot easily offer this and as a result it is often the boys who under-perform and get left behind, their achievements overshadowed by the performance of girls whose brains have matured more quickly. One of the main benefits of a school like Thorpe House is that our teachers are able to tailor the curriculum and deliver teaching and learning in a way that suits boys best.

Pre-Prep Department
A vibrant, inclusive and very happy school, where small classes ensure a high level of care and attention to every boy, and where boys are encouraged to embrace the values of friendship and respect, alongside perseverance and a love of learning.

Prep Department
A warm, friendly, family-like community where each boy is known by his teachers and taught in classes of no more than 16 boys. Due to these small class sizes, our teachers have the time, energy and experience to look after the individual needs of each and every boy.

Senior Department
We provide excellent teaching in a small school environment, where each boy is known by all of his teachers and is treated as an individual. We utilise our understanding of each student so that by the time they leave us they are equipped to face the challenges of a new school and higher education.

Thorpe House School, steeped in history
Thorpe House began life over 90 years ago as a traditional boys’ Prep school and whilst it has seen many changes over the years, the one constant has been the school’s dedication to providing its boys with an outstanding, all-round education.
