`A truly` exceptional `campus in a convenient location.`

St Christopher School is set amongst a 25-acre campus based in the leafy town of Letchworth Garden City, Hertfordshire. Like the town, St Chris is stooped in heritage, while maintaining a modern and forward-thinking focus. Students at St Chris can commute easily from London and Cambridge and our surrounding towns and villages including Harpenden, Hitchin, Baldock, Stevenage, and North London.

We have excellent facilities including modern IT suites, an on-site 25-metre indoor heated swimming pool, an Ecocentre housing animals, a ceramics studio, and photography dark room.

Where we are

Come and say `‘Hello’` in person.

We’d love to meet you and would be delighted to show you around our school.

The unshakeable emphasis on knowing and believing in each individual child for who they are.
The value of learning by doing rather than theorising from the pages of a book.
The importance of working as a team, of critical thinking, and of lifelong learning.

We understand that finding the right school for your child is an important decision for families.

While this process can be exciting as you explore different options and avenues for your child, we also know that some parents find it challenging, particularly for key entry year groups.

The main entry points at St Chris are Nursery, Reception, Year 5, Year 7, Year 9 and Year 12. Occasionally we do have places available in other year groups, and parents wishing to discuss their personal requirements should contact us directly.

Pupils can board with us from the age of 11 (Year 7), and there are systems in place to allow us to offer this provision from the age of 10 in certain circumstances, for example for children of Foreign Office or British Armed Forces employees. Please see the Boarding section of our website for more information, but do contact us to discuss your individual requirements.As a first step, we encourage families to make an initial enquiry via our online Admissions Portal, where open events and tours can be booked. Where this is not possible, we can organise online meetings.

`Boarding allows students to dedicate more time to their studies and the co-curricular activities that they enjoy most, together with their friends.`

`We want them to achieve more than they ever thought they could & be truly happy at the same time.`
