ESTATES MASTER PLAN

Aside from enhancing our extensive sporting and creative arts facilities, the Estates Master Plan will also improve teaching facilities, boarding and visitor experience across the site.

A major five year, £1 million refurbishment of Residential Boarding Houses was begun in the Summer of 2022 with two boys' Houses, Sandringham and Balmoral, benefiting first. As well as updating bathrooms and study rooms, the refurbishment has improved the living accommodation.

In September 2019 Woolwich House, the school's 11th House, opened for our youngest Residential Boarders, providing co-educational residential accommodation for Year 7 entrants to the School, giving them the opportunity to settle into Gordon's life in a smaller and more bespoke environment.

In 2021 we opened our Sports Hall next to the existing all-weather pitch. This significant and much-need investment also included upgrading the car parking and lighting on the north side of the estate. There is also a second 3G all-weather pitch in front of the Sports Pavilion. The facilities were further improved in 2022 with the addition of a 150 square metre Fitness Suite, officially opened by the Earl of Wessex in January 2023.

The latest teaching block is the India Building, opened in September 2022. The new 4-classroom block replaces the out-dated 2-classroom IT hut.

In 2025 the old school Gymnasium will be converted into a Theatre.
