- Claremont's Head, Will Brierly -
The past eight years have been transformative for Claremont. Our governance skillset has widened, diversified and strengthened its skillset, we now offer a seamless ages 2 to 18 educational journey shaped by a nurturing vertical structure at Claremont senior school, Stable Court junior school, and Fan Court pre prep.
We have also made significant improvements to our facilities including The Sydney Cam Centre for Science, a comprehensive redesign of Stable Court, a new Music School, a dedicated Sixth Form Centre, a Forest School for Fan Court, a training all-weather pitch, and the resurfacing or all the outdoor courts. Former state rooms in the Mansion have been historically restored.
Growth in academic outcomes, pupil numbers now sitting at a healthy role of 1100, and our reputation reflects the way in which the wider community has responded to Claremont’s evolution. Our staff and pupils, past and present, will tell you that Claremont has always been a special place: a genuinely welcoming community where goodness underpins our values. This long-established ethos sits alongside our ambitions for a clear step change in our academic growth.
In this next chapter, our vision is to unlock our full potential through the further development of all aspects of a pupil’s learning journey supported by excellent staff, be that their travel here, the facilities they enjoy, their experience of daily life, or the development of an ever-competitive campus in which to learn and mature.
The Claremont estate master plan is both a short term highly achievable projects plan and a long-term multimillion pound vision to support our ambitious educational aspirations, and as custodians of a uniquely historical site and our setting within the local borough.
For 26.27 the aim to progress, and fundraising permitting, complete a programme of upgrades in the Arts Joyce Grenfell Centre, and for Sport
This is an exciting time to come together to invest in Claremont for the limitless potential of generations of pupils.
To ensure the school's facilities match our student's excellence and ambition, Claremont plans a programme of upgrades, refurbishments and new builds as part of a new masterplan currently in the early phases of development, to meet the needs of the school not just for now, but for the next 20 years.
In the last few years the school has delivered the first phases of the old masterplan, including completing construction of the Sir Sydney Camm Science and Technology building and the refurbishment of Stable Court for the Prep School. Our next phase of development includes upgrading the Joyce Grenfell Theatre, completing a music school's upgrade, a new building for security and teaching space as well as a multipurpose sports pitch.
These new projects will be incorporated into a new transformational masterplan with more details coming months. If you would like to discuss any of the proposed projects in further detail, please contact the Head of Development, who would be happy to talk you through the projects.
Thank you for your support.
An independent school education is not attainable for everyone and Claremont Fan Court School are pleased to offer a range of bursaries to support children who can truly thrive here, but who might otherwise not be able to attend.
If you have experienced the benefit of an education at Claremont Fan Court School yourself, or would just like to support a child by giving them an opportunity to reach their potential at our school, you can donate to our bursary fund.
The Claremont Fan Court School Archive preserves material connected to our school’s history from its foundation in 1922 to present day.
This digital archive currently contains some material from Clear View School, Claremont School, Fan Court School. In the future, we intend to digitise material from Claremont Fan Court School.
By making our school's archive available online we hope to make our collective history more accessible to our alumni and wider school community and for the memory of Claremont School and Fan Court School to live on.
As custodians of the school’s grade 1 landscape and listed buildings we take our responsibility very seriously. Each year we schedule a programme of repair and reinstatement work, which ensures that our school site and buildings are maintained and preserved for future generations.
Donations into our heritage fund allow us to complete projects beyond the ongoing immediate maintenance requirements
