Charterhouse is a beautiful school and a wonderful place to live and work. It was founded in 1611 and moved to its present magnificent 250-acre site near Godalming in Surrey in 1872. Few schools can offer such a splendid backdrop for teaching and learning, and the School community is very strong, with excellent relationships between pupils and staff. As part of our ambitious plans, and building on the success of our mixed Sixth Form, we have recently moved to full coeducation, with girls now in every year group. The pupil roll will grow over the next decade from 940 today to around 1,000, with the increase representing additional places for girls.
