      • Fine music-making is at the heart of CCCS, being an ‘everyday’ part of school life in the very best sense of the word. We are unique in the UK as a choir school with three sets of choristers: boys who sing in the chapel choirs of Worcester and Pembroke Colleges, and the Cathedral choristers for whom CCCS was founded.

    You’re not going to find a school more central in Oxford! Christ Church Cathedral School(CCCS) is literally 200 metres from Carfax and directly across the road from Oxford University’s Christ Church. A boys’ Prep day and boarding school that also includes a Nursery and Pre-Prep, it’s just announced plans to take girls until end of Year 2 following ...

    This is an inner-city school so you’re not going to find an expansive site at CCCS, but there’s space enough. The modern Walton Centre which is a bit flashier than the higgledy, stained glass and turned wood Tudor building, houses the hall, home to more informal music performances and assemblies, plus Reception and Year 1 downstairs and Years 2-4 u...

    Limited facilities within the school itself, with squash courts on site and a couple of goals for break-time soccer on the prep playground. By contrast, the facilities on the doorstep are extraordinary. Straight across the road through the Narnia-esque named ‘The Keyhole’ gate, boys play cricket, rugby and football on the pristine pitch overlooking...

    Clearly music is a huge calling card at CCCS, though the school is emphatic that you don’t have to be musical to enjoy yourself here (and there’s plenty else on offer). On the basis of my look-around — my third time at the school in five years — I’d say that’s probably true, though there’s no question that music permeates every pore here, with the ...

    It’s a Montessori philosophy in the Nursery, so it’s very gentle and nurturing (and tidy!) with kids able to flow freely between the rooms with art, brick building and messy play available for their every whim. The kids have weekly yoga sessions, have an outdoor ‘Mud Kitchen’ and climbing frame and visit Christ Church Meadow for Woodland School as ...

    There’s a dedicated member of staff in charge of admissions to senior schools and academic scholarships which should tell how seriously they take academics here. Class sizes are kept deliberately small to focus on the individual needs of each child. For Maths and English from Year 5, boys are streamed into two ability groups with year groups never ...

    Boys with particular needs are offered one-to-one sessions with experienced learning support staff in addition to in-class help from the teaching assistants.

    No afterthought, here — Christ Church Cathedral School knows how important pastoral care is, and keeps it as a priority. A school counsellor comes once a week for the boys to talk to. They can drop in for a chat without appointment, then there’s the weekly pastoral staff meetings where concerns about any pupil are raised and the information is diss...

    Until last year boarding was limited to the 20 full time choristers, but flexi boarding has been introduced to non-choristers over 8 (Mon-Fri for £63 a night), which might appeal to those who can’t get to school for pick up or who frankly want a night off. We’ve all been there. The dorms are in the main school building, and are light and bright wit...

    Richard Murray has been in the hotseat since 2014, having previously been a House Master at St Edward’s School. He has a friendly academic air and a charmingly messy office, with its Morris Minor car wheel and organ against the wall but can still level with the children – he reads every week to the Nursery children including doing the voices and so...
