Welcome to the Colfe's Website
First-time visitors to Colfe's often comment on the open and spacious nature of the site, which
houses both the Preparatory & Senior School, and the happy, friendly atmosphere.
Pastoral care is a key strength. As one parent said: 'Colfe's is interested in people, not just
exam results' so whilst our academic reputation is vitally important to us, so is the well-being of
each and every child.
In recent years we have seen a welcome surge in academic achievement. We intend to ensure that
this virtuous trend continues, whilst maintaining our outstanding reputation in the wider
curriculum, which includes sport, music, drama and outdoor pursuits.
