Visiting the College

We are delighted that you are considering a visit to St Dunstan’s College.

While our website offers a glimpse of who we are, the very best way to understand the character of our community is to experience it first-hand: to walk through our historic yet forward-looking campus, to meet our pupils and staff, and to sense the energy of a school where individuality, innovation, integrity, and academic excellence truly flourish.

Open Day: Saturday 19 September 2026

Our annual Open Day in September is the cornerstone of the College admissions calendar and the best introduction to St Dunstan’s. On this day, families are able to explore every part of the College, from Nursery and Junior School through to Senior School and Sixth Form, gaining a complete picture of our ethos, facilities, and community. The programme includes talks from the CEO, Head of Senior School and Head of Junior School, guided tours led by current pupils, and opportunities to meet staff across academic departments, co-curricular areas, and pastoral care.

Discovery Mornings and Other Events 

Alongside the Open Day, we also host a number of other open events, evenings and experience days. These more intimate events allow families to focus on specific entry points and provide the chance to:

  • Hear directly from the leadership teams and senior staff about our ethos and vision

  • Tour our historic campus and state-of-the-art facilities

  • Speak with pupils and teachers about day-to-day life at St Dunstan’s

  • Learn more about admissions processes and entry requirements

Advance booking is recommended for all events.
