About

Charterhouse Square is a non-selective, co-educational independent school based in the City of London for students aged 3-11 years. The school has excellent transport links, with the Elizabeth line, Farringdon mainline and Barbican tube all within a 5-minute walk.

With a friendly and unpretentious approach, Charterhouse Square School offers education from Nursery and Early Years through to Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

At Charterhouse Square School we believe a happy and stimulating learning environment is fundamental to academic success. Students achieve exceptional academic results at 7+ and 11+ from a broad and balanced curriculum, with a strong emphasis on numeracy and literacy but with ample time also dedicated to physical education and the arts.

Our impressive terrace of seven interlinked buildings offers remarkably spacious and vibrant rooms, providing access to the beautiful Charterhouse Square Gardens. Following our recent expansion, which resulted in a significant transformation, we introduced brand-new classrooms, indoor play areas, a dining area serving delicious hot lunches, innovative learning spaces for science and crafts, and music rooms designed to inspire our young talents.

This space is further extended by our fabulous new rooftop learning deck, with the iconic Barbican towers providing a picturesque backdrop. The rooftop serves as a stunning and versatile space for our pupils, greatly enhancing their outdoor and teaching spaces, and allowing for outdoor learning and drama productions, including our very own gardening club.

With excellent teaching, superb pastoral care and a warm, friendly and stimulating environment, every child leaves Charterhouse Square School with a love of learning, which, combined with confidence and social skills, will ensure they make the very best of life’s opportunities.
