About Us

Claremont is a wonderful school. Set across two sites of extraordinary beauty, it distinguishes itself in this area of East Sussex as a co-educational day and boarding school for students aged 1 to 18 years. Established in 1925, The Nursery, Pre-Prep and Prep School is set on an 125 acre estate in St Leonards and educates over 400 students.

In 2011, Claremont Senior School was founded in the historic village of Bodiam. Starting with 40 students in 2011, the Senior School is now a well-established centre of learning with over 310 pupils today, a vibrant Sixth Form and two newly refurbished boarding houses.  Having been a proprietorial school for years, in February 2018, Claremont School became a member of the International Schools Partnership (ISP) and the flagship British school in a portfolio of 39 schools around the world.  Our partnership with ISP has brought with it renewed investment and the opportunity to realise our ambitions to further develop our extensive grounds and already impressive facilities at both school sites.  With a thriving Prep School due to celebrate its centenary in 2025, a vibrant and growing senior school and sixth form and having once again been judged ‘Outstanding’ across all categories by Ofsted in November 2023,  we have certainly come a long way…
