Old Buckenham Hall School

Brettenham Park, Ipswich, Suffolk, IP7 7PH, United Kingdom

Old Buckenham Hall (OBH) is a lovely, traditional co-educational prep school which provides an idyllic countryside setting for children to develop academically and socially. The OBH way, according to Headmaster David Griffiths, “signals courage, respect, kindness, pride, responsibility and community” and was drawn up after consultation with staff and pupils. Academic success is also very important and children progress to a range of excellent senior schools. Class sizes are from 10-18 children and core subjects are taught in ability sets from age 7. Children have the opportunity to learn and excel in different areas, and everyone has their own individual goals.

The setting provides wonderful opportunities for outdoor learning and activities. There are three outdoor classrooms, including a wigwam, and excellent sports facilities with a golf course on campus. Music is really popular and well catered for with a new recital hall and over 70% of children learn an instrument.

Boarding is becoming increasingly popular and children are housed in cosy and comfortable dorms. The full boarders are few in number but have a special weekend programme arranged for them.
