About us:

Alleyn's School is an esteemed independent co-educational day school located in Dulwich, London, catering to students aged 4-18. It's part of a rich historical tradition, originally being a segment of Edward Alleyn's College of God's Gift charitable foundation, which also included James Allen's Girls' School and Dulwich College​​.

The school, with a student population of just over 1,000 in the senior school from ages 11-18, is nestled in the leafy, affluent suburb of Dulwich in South East London, offering a nurturing yet stimulating environment for its students​​. The school is known for its high academic standards and is a mainstream independent school with a linked junior school, not offering boarding but deeply integrated with the local community of Southwark​​.

Under the leadership of Head Jane Lunnon, who took the role in January 2021, Alleyn's School is dedicated to maintaining its reputation for excellence. The school boasts a balanced gender ratio with 523 boys and 562 girls, reflecting its co-educational ethos. It also has a strong track record of academic success, with 13% of students going on to Oxbridge. The term fees stand at £7,620, and the school follows a comprehensive admissions process that includes the ISEB Pre-Test, the school’s own exam, and an interview​​.

As a registered charity and a Church of England school, Alleyn's School is committed to providing a well-rounded education that not only focuses on academic excellence but also fosters moral and personal growth in its students​​​​.
