Cambian Chesham House School is an independent, DfE-registered, co-educational day school, providing specialist education for up to 20 students, aged 10-18 years.

The School is non-denominational and has a secular ethos, but respect the cultural needs and religious beliefs of all. The School specialises in developing a culture of high expectation and achievement for all students where they are encouraged to enjoy learning, progress in their studies and exceed expectation.

Our well qualified, experienced and passionate team work together to promote our school as a community and ensure our students success both within our school and beyond. We offer a rich and varied curriculum that we are able to tailor to individual students needs and interests offering a range of both academic and vocational elements. Timetables are tailored to each individual to ensure they have the best opportunities available to them to make good progress and fulfil their potential. We continually monitor and improve our offer, embracing opportunities to further build and expand on the learning experiences of our students.

Enriching Our School Environment

Game Room

The game room offers a wide variety of activities for students to enjoy, including a PlayStation 5, foosball table, dartboard, 3-in-1 multi-games table featuring pool, air hockey and table tennis, as well as mindfulness colouring.

The space provides opportunities for students to relax, socialise and build friendships before school and during break times, making it a valued part of the school community.

Our Library

Our library offers a range of books to suit students’ individual interests, with students actively involved in choosing the books and categories available. The collection includes a dedicated Manga section, helping to encourage a love of reading and giving students the opportunity to explore new interests.

The library also celebrates students’ creativity and achievements. Two students at Chesham House have had their poems published in the book I Have a Dream. Their imaginative ideas, multiple drafts and determination have helped bring their writing to life, showcasing the talent and creativity within the school community.
