Introduction

 

Cobham Hall is an independent day and boarding school for girls located in Cobham, Kent. The school occupies 150 acres, set in historic parkland on the edge of the Kent Downs.

 

It’s housed in a Tudor-era manor, which is now Grade I listed. The school is a member of Round Square and the Girls’ Schools Association. 

 

At Cobham Hall, diversity is celebrated with all of its benefits. This is especially visible in the scope of the many different nationalities and backgrounds that make up the student body.

 

The school provides a nurturing environment, small class sizes and outstanding support, whilst the relaxed interaction between girls further enables them to develop into young women capable of more than just passing exams. 

 

Girls leaving Cobham Hall step into the world with confidence in their abilities coupled with plenty of practical experience, acquired whilst working alongside people from different backgrounds and cultures. 

 

Being a small school enables awareness of girls’ talents, strengths and potential at an individual level. They are challenged both inside and outside of the classroom to push themselves beyond their comfort zone. They have classes in English, maths, science, geography, computer science and many others, and choose from German, French and Spanish as modern language options.

 

In full accordance with the school’s motto There is more in you than you think, girls are provided with the tools needed to cope with life’s challenges. Cobham Hall takes pride in developing a dedicated and integrated wellbeing programme, comprising both structured lesson time and a wide range of extra-curricular activities.

 

At Cobham Hall, girls have the opportunity to take lessons in Voice, Drama and Communication, specially designed to help develop self-confidence, voice projection, self-expression, general communication and theatrical skills. 

 

Girls who take these classes go on to sit the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA) Performance or Communication examinations. Recently, Cobham Hall had a 100% pass rate for LAMDA examinations, with 97% of girls passing with either a Distinction or a Merit.
