CONNECTING PARENTS WITH INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS

As one of the leading independent school search directories, the UK Independent Schools’ Directory has been connecting parents with independent schools since 2011.

Individual school profiles provide detailed information and we work closely with our schools to ensure that all details displayed are up to date and accurate. The Advice section will guide you through the process of school selection, finance and viewing schools. You may also find it useful to read the latest articles, written by Headteachers and education experts. The Open Day section lists forthcoming Open Event dates for our schools. We are able to provide a selection of schools to meet your individual needs and, if required, will contact schools on your behalf. Please email or telephone us with any questions that you may have.

We hope that you will be able to choose a school that will enable your child to enjoy a happy and successful school life.
