Boarding: Redwood House is more than an onsite boarding facility – it’s a close – knit community and home away from home, where lifelong friendships are formed, work ethic is nurtured, and leadership and teamwork are encouraged. Academic achievement is prioritised through structured evening study led by teachers. Living on campus places boarders at the heart of the college life, with access to a wide range of extracurricular and leadership opportunities.
Redwood House has a proud legacy of academic success, top-level sports achievement, strong student leadership and active extracurricular involvement ensuring a well-rounded educational experience supported by excellent pastoral care. Guiding young men from all backgrounds to grow into compassionate men of integrity, and purpose.
Public transport is easily accessible to students with a train station across the road and bus stops outside school gates.
