Shrewsbury School has a world-class reputation for all-round excellence. Fully co-educational, with a seven-day boarding heartbeat and an integral day community for ages 13 to 18, we deliver a dynamic education that develops the abilities and enthusiasms of each and every individual girl and boy.
Founded in 1552, Shrewsbury School combines tradition with a vibrant, modern co-educational vision. We believe that our wide range of both academic and co-curricular offerings, combined with our strong sense of community and our ‘serious fun’ approach to learning, is the perfect way to deliver that ‘whole person’ education that inspires and empowers our pupils.
We are fortunate to be located on a beautiful campus-style site on the edge of one of the most historic county towns in England where we welcome 832 pupils on site each day.
Life at Shrewsbury is founded on a close partnership between staff, parents and pupils to promote the strength of family life, foster responsibility, and balance the claims of developing individuality with the needs of a vibrant community.
Shrewsbury School is a member of the BSA and G30 Schools. The Headmaster is also a member of the HMC and a founding champion of the School Partnership Alliance.
In addition, the Shrewsbury family of schools includes a prep school for pupils aged 3 to 13 and five international schools in Thailand, Hong Kong, Cambodia and India.
