Our School
Windrush Valley School is set in The Cotswolds, one of the most typically English and unspoiled regions of England. The unique region is the country’s largest officially designated ‘Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty’ owing to the beautiful countryside with historic market towns, river valleys and sleepy limestone villages.
Global Citizens
Our curriculum at Windrush goes above and beyond the national curriculum. The school aims to teach children to grow into positive, responsible and healthy people, who can work and co-operate with others. It does so through planned activities that promote learning and personal growth and development. The 'Our World' Programme gives students the opportunity to engage in a variety of exciting projects of real-world importance and community impact.
