About Ripley Court School

Ripley Court is a fully co-educational school for 3 -11 year olds set in 20 beautiful acres just minutes from the A3 and equidistant from Cobham, Weybridge, Woking and Guildford. Ripley Court has for years been preparing children for entry to top independent schools. Its secret for success is to combine strong academic rigor with important but less-measurable values in life, such as kindness, respect, gentleness, and fun. The school has excellent performances in exams, senior school entries and scholarships as well as success in sports, music and art. Such achievements are important but each child’s happiness and well-being is valued more. Past pupils of all generations speak of a wonderful childhood at Ripley, being outdoors and having time to be children, but at the same time achieving highly in life.

Reed's School and Ripley Court School are committed to being a successful, caring and welcoming place for all employees. We want to create a supportive and inclusive environment where our employees can reach their full potential, without prejudice and discrimination. We are committed to a culture where respect and understanding is fostered and the diversity of people's backgrounds and circumstances will be positively valued.
