General information

Background: Brockwood Park School is situated in the beautiful Hampshire countryside, 60 miles southwest of London. With a maximum of 60 students, aged 14 and over, it has the feeling of a large family rather than a boarding school. There is an atmosphere of friendly equality and, as in any family, students and adults help with the day-to-day decision making and care of the grounds and buildings. Working together this way nurtures a spirit of responsibility, co-operation and affection. .

Inspection: March 2005: 'Brockwood Park is a distinctive school with clearly stated aims and an ethos based on the philosophy of J Krishnamurti. The senior curriculum is tailored to the needs of individual pupils, and external exams are offered at Advanced (A) and Advanced Subsidiary (AS) levels. Standards consequently vary from year to year. Relationships between pupils and each other and pupils and staff are very good. The daily routine provides frequent opportunities for pupils to contemplate, reflect and discuss. Acquisition of knowledge is accompanied by opportunities for pupils to develop their learning and thinking skills independently. There is considerable emphasis on self-evaluation and work is underway to develop greater consistency of assessment procedures across the curriculum. Pastoral care is of a very high standard. Pupils conduct themselves with grace and courtesy around the school, are welcoming to visitors and convey a strong awareness of their responsibility to others. The school is looking at means of providing a stronger induction programme for new staff.' .
