We are thrilled to feature in the prestigious Tatler Schools Guide in the UK again for the 2025 version.

Still catching evocative glimpses of @QASCaversham from windows that I hadn’t noticed before! Welcome back for the Michaelmas Term - autumn has certainly arrived! #QASstrongspirits #Autumn #backtoschool
We are always delighted to welcome such wonderful students from The Manor Prep. Enjoy the rest of the summer and we look forward to seeing you soon!
We are delighted, as always, to see our Year 6 children gain places at an array of schools including Cokethorpe, Cranford House, Fitzharrys, John Mason and Queen Anne's... to name just a few!
We wish them all the best come September!

The wild flowers at the front of school are looking great in the sunshine. Do our bees (6 hives now!) reach this part of campus, I wonder? #wildflowers #flowersforbees @britishbee @The_RHS @QASCaversham
