Location & DirectionsSome believe a school is best located in the countryside, others that it should be close to a town, to communications and the real world of commerce and industry. Caterham is both. The school is less than a kilometre from the town centre, and only five minutes from Junction 6 of the M25, but neither is visible - or audible. Screened by beech woods and protected from urban sprawl, the school's 80-acre campus sits at the head of the lovely Harestone Valley, which winds up from the town to the ancient North Downs Way. London lies to the north - close, but not too close - making cultural visits, sports fixtures and work experience alike easy to organise and rewarding to do. Access could hardly be simpler or more convenient. The M25 links into motorways east, west and north, and makes life easy for those living abroad by connecting with both Gatwick and Heathrow airports. There is a railway station at Caterham, with regular services to London.

Across the mini roundabout bearing right and carry along Harestone Valley Road towards the school which is on the left after approximately 3/4 mile. By Road from M23 : At Junction 8, take the M25 eastwards for about 3 miles then as from M25 junction 6. By Rail : Caterham Railway Station is a 15 minute walk away from the school. Taxis are available at the station. There are regular trains to and from East Croydon and London. By Air : London Gatwick Airport takes approximately 20 to 30 minutes. Visitor Car Parking: Visitors are requested to park in the Visitors Car Park adjacent to the Main Entrance.
