Clifton College leads the way as one of the best Public Boarding Schools in the country. We offer day places, flexi and full boarding places. Welcoming boys and girls from 3 to 18, Clifton becomes the school every pupil needs it to be, preparing them for life in the real world, not in a ‘bubble’. We are known for academic excellence, myriad opportunities, state of the art facilities, superb pastoral care and expert staff who deliver the very best learning and development. We provide a richly diverse and connected school environment, representative of the real world. Our pupils mature into individuals who are ambitious, open-minded and spirited.
The breadth of destinations to which Cliftonians move on after the Sixth Form, and the wide range of courses selected, is testament to the diversity and ambition of our students.
The vast majority of Cliftonians apply to UK universities, many winning places at the most competitive institutions amongst the ‘G5’ and Russell Group universities. However, an increasing number of our students apply to study internationally, whether in the US, Canada, Australasia, Hong Kong or continental Europe. Our International Universities Coordinator, based in the Higher Education and Careers Hub, provides specialist advice and support to guide these students through their overseas applications.
We also have lots of experience supporting the significant number of students keen to undertake graduate apprenticeship degrees, an increasingly popular alternative to the conventional university route.
