Introduction

 

Reddam House Berkshire is a co-ed independent school in Wokingham, Berkshire. Catering for both day and boarding pupils, it occupies 125 acres of magnificent wood and parkland, as well as a wide selection of facilities, including a 350-seat professional theatre, a 25-metre indoor swimming pool and a 4G Astro turf hockey pitch. [1]

 

In the Middle School, the educational provision is primarily focused on inspiring a love of learning and intellectual inquisitiveness, enriching the core curriculum through non-academic subjects such as visual arts, music, drama, life skills, PE and public speaking.

 

The varied selection of club activities brings further excitement to the learning experience, allowing children to test their abilities across a range of activities, including LAMDA, ballet, athletics, photography, robotics and chess. [2]

 

According to the latest ISI report for Reddam House, the moral, social, spiritual and cultural development of children is of excellent standard. Pupils work hard to expand their potential and approach their educational journey with enthusiasm, benefitting from strong pastoral care and a thriving community where optimism and positive relationships exist in abundance.
