Welcome to Quinton House School
At Quinton, we believe in preparing your child for the world that awaits them. We do this by focusing on the timeless fundamentals of character development.
For over 80 years we’ve poured our efforts and expertise into shaping curious, inspired, flexible and resilient young people.
Developing students with academic excellence, yes.
But also the practical wisdom and integrity, that empowers them to make a difference, and bring out the best in themselves, and in others.
Because those are the qualities that our children need.
For a happy, fulfilled and successful life. Beyond the classroom, the exam hall, and out into the wider world that awaits them.
Ready to thrive as leaders of the future.
"At Quinton we have a strong ethos based around family values. This community and family feel allow our children to progress rapidly and be academically successful."

Year 1 certainly had their hands full during their recent trip to Hooten’s Farm. As well as learning about the different animals and the hard work that goes into a working farm, they were set with a VERY important task: keeping the farm’s new arrivals’ tummies topped up with milk! 🐑

Harrington House’s charity event returned with a splash to see out the end of our Spring Term.
From your traditional sports such as netball, football and badminton to karaoke, mindfulness colouring and the all important ‘sponge a teacher’, it was all in aid of raising much needed funds for @cardiacriskintheyoung.
Thank you all who donated and took part in the activities across the school.
P.s we promise Mr Rihal was still smiling after his sponging!

U11 Boys Reach National Football Finals at St George’s Park
“On Friday 20th March, our U11 boys represented the school at the National ISA 5-a-side Tournament, held at the prestigious St George’s Park National Football Centre. Competing among the final 28 small school teams in the country, the boys did themselves—and the school—immensely proud.
Facing an exceptionally high standard of opposition in what can only be described as an elite environment, the team showed determination, resilience, and great sportsmanship throughout the day. From six challenging group games, they recorded three draws and three losses, including two closely fought score draws and a goalless one.
Overall, the team finished the tournament with a record of 1 win, 3 draws, and 4 losses. While the boys left feeling slightly disappointed, they were reminded of the incredible achievement it is to reach a national finals stage. This experience, competing at such a high level, will undoubtedly stay with them and provide positive memories for years to come.”
Mr Brierley, Teacher of PE and Games & Head of Lower School.

✨ A Spark of Curiosity at Our Year 7 Transition Day! ✨
Current Year 6 students joined our Senior School for a morning of hands-on science experiences that truly brought learning to life. From mastering microscopes to safely experimenting with Bunsen burners, curiosity was in full flame!
The highlight? A spectacular flame test experiment, where students explored how different chemicals create vibrant colours — before choosing their favourites to design the ultimate “firework”!
It was fantastic to see new friendships forming and confidence growing as students got a real taste of life at Quinton House. Thank you to Mrs Panesar and Miss Fillmore for a fantastic event.
Still considering your Year 7 place this September? We’d love to hear from you! Get in touch with our Admissions team or book a personal tour to see what makes our school such a special place to learn and thrive.
