Granville is proud of its sporting track record (pun intended) – and sport is very strong when you consider the size of the school. And being single-sex there’s a good number of girls from which to select A, B, C and D teams – meaning everyone gets to participate as well as pushing for success. They are known for their county tennis players and str...

The school is big on pastoral care. A strong team of form teachers combined with the small class sizes means pupils are known very well and develops a culture of sharing and openness. Pastoral concerns are discussed at every weekly staff meeting. As well as this bigger structure, the pastoral ethos also filters down to the detail – there’s a school...

Mrs Louise Lawrance has been head since 2018 and is very friendly and approachable. A hands-on leader, she has her own daughter in Year 2, which obviously means that she believes wholeheartedly in the school she leads!

Oct 2, 2019 · The Granville in Sevenoaks is an independent preparatory school for boys aged 3 to 4 and girls aged 3 to 11 where an education combines the very best of a traditional prep school experience with an innovative and forward-looking approach.
The Granville School leads the field in providing an independent pre-s chool education for girls and boys aged 3-4 and a prep education for girls aged 4-11 that is aspirational, future-facing, relevant and engenders success in all aspects of school life, while still upholding the best of prep school tradition.
Since 1966 the school has been an educational charitable trust and is administered by a board of members and governors, all of whom have personal links with the school either by being a past or current parent or an old girl. Our main school building, The Granville, was built around 1883.
