Thornton College

Thornton is an independent day and boarding school for girls aged between 4 and 16 with a nursery for girls and boys aged 2 ½ to 4 years.  

Over 50 girls board on a weekly or termly basis and many more take advantage of our occasional boarding option.

The School is set within 25 acres of beautiful parkland just outside Buckingham and within easy reach of Milton Keynes, Bicester and Northampton. They are a Catholic school with a strong Christian ethos. Girls are welcomed to Thornton from all Christian denominations and other faiths.

Pupils receive an outstanding education and make excellent progress at Thornton. Your daughter would be encouraged and expected to achieve her personal best in all she does.

They believe that teaching and learning should be both challenging and enjoyable for pupils of all abilities and we aim for the highest possible standards.

Whether she is the most gifted academically, a good all-rounder or needs additional help in some areas, your daughter will receive a stimulating and rewarding educational experience suited to her needs.

Their GCSE results are testament to the way the girls are challenged and motivated to give their best in all they do.
