The Granville School
Sevenoaks, Kent, South East · TN13 3LJ
Educating girls from ages three to eleven, The Granville School has built its reputation in Sevenoaks since 1945 on the kind of close attention that small numbers allow. With just over 200 pupils and a pupil-to-teacher ratio of around eight to one, classes are intimate and children are well known to their teachers. The Independent Schools Inspectorate judged the school excellent for both education and personal development, and found it fully compliant with regulatory standards. It suits families seeking a nurturing, single-sex primary setting with strong individual support.
