Downe House
About Downe House
Downe House is a leading independent day and boarding school
for girls aged 11 – 18, located in a beautiful 110-acre campus near Newbury in
Berkshire.
Downe enjoys a reputation for delivering a world-class
education, with outstanding academic and extracurricular provision, and
pastoral excellence at the core.
Downe has been inspiring girls to succeed since it opened in
1907. The founding principles - that a school should meet the needs of young
women by prizing individuals and engendering a strong sense of community –
remain true to our values today. Tradition is part of our character, but this
sits alongside innovation – in facilities, teaching, and ambition.
What does a Downe House education promise? There is no
typical student; we focus on the individual and are proud to nurture confident,
caring trailblazers with a global outlook, equipped to take their own unique
paths in life. Inspirational teaching and an abundance of opportunities outside
the classroom bring out the best in each girl, with holistic pastoral support
providing a home-from-home.
Downe is a very special place to be a part of – as a pupil
and as a member of staff. Our employees
– whether in teaching, operational or pastoral roles – are valued members of
our school community, and each plays a part in creating a supportive and kind
environment in which everyone can thrive.
Thank you for your interest in joining the Downe House
team. We hope to welcome you to Downe
House soon, so that you can meet our staff, our girls, and see the School in
action.
