RADLEY COLLEGE

Sicut Serpentes; Sicut Columba

Be ye wise as serpents, and harmless as doves

Radley College is one of the only four remaining full boarding school for boys aged between 13 and 18. Founded nearly 175 years ago the School is proud of its tradition and yet is celebrated for its innovation and dynamism. The school is renowned for added value, outstanding pastoral care and strong community – every boy is known as an individual and the daily evening Chapel and House Cocoa sessions promote the sense of family that is so special to Radley. It is an environment where boys thrive academically and make the most of an enormous range of opportunities on offer – be those our fabulous art and DT rooms or the impressive array of societies and speakers.

Radley is set in a beautiful 800 acre estate of rural countryside and is just three miles away from Oxford and all that is on offer there. Our 735 boys enjoy outstanding facilities and recent developments have included a new boarding house – L Social, a new science centre, 3 astros, a strength and conditioning centre and an indoor rowing tank. We are a school for the all-rounder, we promote academic excellence and intellectual sharpness whilst producing young men who are decent, kind and caring, ready to engage with others and aware of the responsibility they have to the world they live in.
