ASIS View of Farringtons School
One of the ASIS schools closest to London in the county of Kent taking in a wide academic ability and focussing on holistic growth. Christian principles (Methodist) practised but by no means a ‘heavy’ part of school life or curriculum, which is deliberately wide to cater for mixed abilities. Strong support for weaker English speakers. Wide ethnic and cultural mix within the 70-strong boarding community of the senior school. Good results from a non-selective pupil intake.
