Head Master’s Welcome
At Dauntsey’s, our ultimate priority is the happiness and fulfilment of everyone in our community. We want the pupils to do better here than they would anywhere else and, in our experience, when pupils are happy, success follows.
Joining Dauntsey’s
Entry to Dauntsey's is normally at age 11, 13, or 16, although pupils may be accepted into other year groups if space is available. Please contact the Admissions Team to discuss this further.
