Lighthouse School

Kent, South East · CT9 2QJ

With just 44 pupils on roll, Lighthouse School is a notably small independent school in Kent, where children are likely to be known as individuals rather than faces in a crowd. The mixed, non-denominational setting is led by Head Miss Bonnie Tate, and its intimate scale will appeal to families seeking a close-knit environment over the bustle of a larger institution. As an independent school, it charges fees and is inspected by the ISI.
