There are currently about 500 pupils aged 11-18, over 150 aged 5-11 and a Nursery with more than 15 boys and girls. Over 90 pupils are boarders. Founded in 1858, West Buckland School lies on the south-west edge of Exmoor, 10 miles from Barnstaple, on a 100-acre site. The school is contained in handsome 19th-century buildings with many modern additions, including an IT centre, performing arts complex, indoor swimming pool and all-weather pitch and we have our own 9-hole golf course. The Jonathan Edwards Sports Centre was opened in 2008 and the new Art and Design, Design and Technology and Theatre building will be opened in 2010. Over the years the school has developed a strong sense of community and there is much emphasis on everyone participating in the life of the school. A sound general education is provided and examination results are excellent.
