  • Over 400 acres (1.6 km2) of grounds
  • A 25 metre indoor heated pool
  • 4 indoor squash courts
  • 3 indoor eton fives courts
  • Free weights room
  • Gym ( Rowing Machines, Treadmills, Cross-trainers, Exercise bikes, Benches, Multi gyms)
  • 2 sport halls (1 wooden gymnasium)
  • Up to 50 tennis courts ( 37 permanent: 10 grass, 12 carpet, 15 hard)

Unique Points

Each year, the JACT Ancient Greek Summer School is held at Bryanston; the school has played host to many of the UK's classicists, both as teachers and pupils. They have an Outdoor Greek Theatre for plays entirely in Ancient Greek. They are modern too - the pop star Lily Allen is a former pupil.

Entry Requirements

Most pupils join the School at 13+, having passed Common Entrance examinations in June of their year of entry. Pupils are expected to achieve 50% in all papers to qualify for an offer of a place. Prospective pupils who have not been prepared for Common Entrance must pass entrance examinations set by the School, in February of the year of entry, in English, Science, Maths and a modern foreign language. Particularly able pupils may sit additional papers and be considered for an Academic Award. If space is available it may be possible to join the School’s second year, for the start of GCSE courses, but this is not a normal point of entry.
