Westwood, Ipswich School’s boarding house, is a Victorian mansion set in wooded grounds, just a 5 minute walk from the main school site.

Our co-curricular programme complements what happens in lessons and provides a thoroughly enjoyable break from academic work and an opportunity for pupils to express themselves in different ways.

Our Senior Admissions Manager, Mrs Laura Trainer, can arrange a tour of the Senior School and a meeting with the Headmaster, Nicholas Weaver. She can guide you through the admissions process and also explain our entry requirements.

The Middle School covers Years 9, 10 and 11. Pupils are placed in House-based tutor groups and are taught by subject specialists in all lessons.

The Lower School covers Years 7 and 8. Pupils are taught in form groups for most subjects apart from maths.

Academic success has to be underpinned by attention to the whole person and our pastoral care is strongly committed to this approach.
