Slindon College’s impactful surroundings offer a calm and meaningful setting for boys who struggle to fulfil their potential in independent and mainstream schools.
Set in stimulating 14-acre National Trust grounds within South Downs National Park countryside the College focusses on small, highly individualised classes and learning.
The dedicated team of professionals at Slindon work with each boy on a rounded social and educational development package, offering both nationally recognised examinations and social development targets.
The College provides a low pressure learning environment that builds on each individual’s strengths and talents. The diverse curriculum can be individually adapted to a pupil’s requirements, inspiring personal development and a breadth of experience that encourages success and life- long engagement with learning.
“The academic curriculum is excellent and particularly well suited to the needs of the pupils, placing a strong focus on literacy and numeracy while offering a wide range of creative and practical subjects.”

The College’s enrichment programme offers opportunities for self- exploration and a safe environment for calculated risk-taking. The College caters for outdoor enthusiasts with mountain biking, orienteering, Greenpower electric car racing (national competition), Forest School, our school farm and horticulture, ensuring that the pupils benefit from the College’s impressive surroundings.
Slindon College is also a centre of excellence for moderate learning difficulties.
The College adopts a holistic approach to learning support so that class teachers and specialist staff work together for the benefit of pupils. The Learning Support department aims for every pupil to be fully included, enabled, valued and encouraged to be the best version of themselves.
Specialist dyslexia teachers, speech and language therapists, occupational therapists, learning support assistants and the boarding team each work collaboratively with the class teachers to ensure that the impact of any potential learning barriers are minimised.
With an outstanding pastoral support system, Slindon College enables every pupil to be listened to in a calm and caring environment.
As well as full-time and weekly boarding, we offer flexi- boarding which can be adapted to the individual pupil’s or family’s needs. This includes occasional or one-off ‘stay-overs’ in the familiar and secure surroundings of the College. Our warm and welcoming boarding team offer the comfort and stability of family life whilst developing independent living skills and a thirst for new experiences.
Slindon College’s Open Morning is Saturday, September 19, 9.30am to 12 noon and it’s a fantastic way to see the College’s surroundings and understand the holistic approach to education and learning. The College also offers private tours throughout the year.
