Horsham and Christ’s Hospital School
Christ’s Hospital School is located near Horsham, close to Gatwick Airport just to the south-west of London. The village has its own railway station with frequent trains to London, south coast towns and a number of places of historical and cultural interest.
The local town of Horsham has some great shopping, and is the perfect size for our students to explore and have some free time.
Our course takes place in one of the most impressive private schools in the United Kingdom. Set in large beautiful grounds, Christ’s Hospital School has a lot to offer visiting students including tremendous facilities for learning, sports and activities.
The school’s facilities include a grand Victorian dining room that houses the largest painting in Europe; and a theatre built to resemble Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre in London. Christ’s Hospital also boasts superb modern facilities including modern classrooms with smartboards, a large indoor sports complex, Astroturf and tennis courts.
These wonderful facilities, the traditional and the modern, are all set within a huge 500-hectare estate.

Most of the accommodation is in comfortable study bedrooms in one of eight residential houses set on their own private avenue either side of the main school quadrangle.
