St Lawrence College - Senior School co-educational, boarding, day school situated, Ramsgate, Kent

St Lawrence College

Walk through the historic North Arch, at St Lawrence College in Kent, and you will immediately feel at home.

Outstanding results are achieved by the most academic students who progress to many of the top universities. The school is also highly regarded as a centre of excellence for 'value added': Students who need additional support perform well beyond expectation.

The school is set within stunningly beautiful surroundings which include outstanding sports facilities. The buildings reflect the nature of the school: steeped in history and tradition, yet modern, creative and forward-thinking. The Main building has a striking 19th Century facade which sits alongside the glorious Chapel, completed in 1927.

Our 11 to 13 year old pupils are really enjoying life in our stunning newly built Kirby House. Its imaginative design combines both classrooms and dormitories built around a large atrium with a virtual library at its centre.

At St Lawrence College the aim is to encourage a real intellectual curiosity about life. This approach, growing out of deep Christian roots, produces a particular atmosphere within the school. It is enhanced by the size of the community which allows every pupil to be known personally by the staff. The exciting mixture of local children from the South East of England, sharing their education with others from all around the world, in a co-educational setting, produces a hopeful vision for the future.
