Queen Anne's School is an independent day and boarding school for female pupils aged eleven to nineteen. Founded in 1698 in Westminster as the Grey Coat Hospital, it became a school for females in 1874, moving to the present site in Caversham in 1894. In 2019, the Grey Coat Hospital Foundation merged with the United Westminster Schools Foundation to create the United Westminster Grey Coat Foundation, which maintains oversight through an independent governing body. Boarders are accommodated in four boarding houses; there are three-day houses. Since the previous inspection, the school has completed a new main entrance, school office, and music center, including a recital hall and a recording studio.

Cardiff Sixth Form College has been the top academic school in the UK over the past 13 years. In 2025, 94% of students gained all A*-A grades and 99.6% A*-B. 81% of students went on to the QS top universities worldwide, and 56% to the Russell Group. Key subject choices include medicine, engineering, law, natural sciences, computer science, architecture, business, and economics, with 33% of students going on to the top G5 universities in the UK. The original school is situated in the middle of Cardiff, the lively capital city of Wales. The college also opened a second STEM A Level campus in the stunning university city of Cambridge. Here, students undertake a super-curricular programme called The Cambridge Edge, using Cambridge University and the businesses in Cambridge to give students the edge when applying to university. Students can join Cardiff Sixth Form College for two- or one-year GCSE courses (aged 14 or 15) or A Levels (aged 16–17). Students reside in top-quality boarding houses and enjoy single, en-suite bedrooms with shared medical centres, practice rooms, and common rooms. A full super-curricular programme of careers, work placement (both internationally and in the UK), skills development, online courses, critical thinking, and research projects supplements the excellent academic programme. All students at Cardiff are ambitious and aim for top universities, so the college excels in giving students the edge. There is a year-long, one-to-one university preparation programme to help students navigate the UCAS system, understand course differences, receive guidance on interviews and personal statements, and prepare for top university admissions tests, along with visits from external speakers and university admissions advisors. There is also a full range of extra-curricular activities including sports, music, drama, Duke of Edinburgh, debating, MUN, Young Enterprise Scheme, and the NASA Space Settlement Design Competition, as well as many other clubs. Whole-school events take place four times a year, including Sports Day, Cultural Event, Talent Show, and the GLEE theatre production, alongside House activities and weekend social events to celebrate key times of the year.

Lord Wandsworth College is a co-educational independent day and boarding school located set in 1200 acres of stunning North Hampshire countryside in Southern England, less than an hour from London and Heathrow Airport. Established in 1922, Lord Wandsworth College offers an outstanding education for students aged 11 to 18 and enjoys a strong international community. Our mission statement is simple: to nurture inwardly self-confident, outwardly modest, curious and passionate young individuals who are ambitious to go and make a positive difference in the world. With 700 pupils on roll we are small enough to really know our students, yet big enough to offer an extensive range of facilities and a broad curriculum. Our students consistently achieve excellent exam results, while still enjoying our extensive co-curriculum and leadership opportunities. In our Sixth Form, a growing focus on life after school means our pupils develop greater confidence and ambition as they prepare for university and beyond. The College welcomes pupils from all over the world and really values the contribution they make to our community. We are proud of our cultural diversity. We offer our international boarders a home from home, allowing them to immerse themselves into the British culture in a wonderfully friendly and supportive way. Our Head of Boarding organises an extensive range of weekend trips and activities and our International Students Association exists to promote the interests of international students. We are a UKVI licence holder and able to sponsor international students under the student visa scheme.
