Founded in 1935 by R J O Meyer as a boys' school, girls were admitted in 1947 and it has long been fully co-educational. It has a fine campus of 166 acres. It is in beautiful countryside, with 18 boarding houses in the town of Street and surrounding villages. The prep school is in nearby Glastonbury. Large, diverse and complex, it is a well-run school which enjoys a very high staff:pupil ratio (1:8), and this is one of its many strengths. Vocational qualifications are offered in addition to traditional A-levels and examination results are very good. A wide range of languages is offered including Japanese, Russian, Arabic and Greek. Facilities include an Olympic-size swimming pool, theatre, fine arts complex, indoor tennis centre and equestrian centre. It caters for virtually every need and displays energy, organisation and purposefulness in every activity. Over 40 sports and games are available and the school has excelled in many. Over the years, it has produced over 51 Olympic competitors. Music, drama and arts programmes are very strong. All pupils are involved in conservation at the school's own 40-acre centre at Worley Hill.
