Did you know? According to UCAS, 63% of young people in Wimbledon go on to university which is the highest figure in the UK. 

We also have Wimbledon Village, one of London's traditional villages. The Village dates back to the 11th century and is only a 10-minute walk from the school. There you can find designer shops and high-class restaurants, traditional country pubs and typical English houses and cottages. Next to the Village is Wimbledon Common, a large natural area (460 hectares) of grassland, woods and lakes, perfect for horse riding, jogging, walking with friends or playing a round of golf. And of course, we are very lucky to be the home of the famous All England Lawn Tennis Club which brings the top names in tennis to our doorstep every summer.

Did you know? Wimbledon Village was voted a top 10 high street (BBC)
