Bootham School continues to build on its national reputation as a school with a difference, having last year celebrated 200 years of outstanding education. This Quaker school has been leading the way in intelligent education since 1823 and has been dubbed by the Good School Guide as ’the thinking parent’s school.’
Students benefit from the small class sizes, inspirational teaching and the wide-ranging activity programme you would expect from a leading independent school. However, its Quaker heritage and ethos bring something extra; a solid foundation of moral principles, public duty and a positive view of the world and its people.
Alumni include Asda chairman Sir Stuart Rose, COVID specialist Professor Peter Openshaw, Elizabeth Waterman (named as one of the Top 50 UK Women in Engineering under 35), renowned graffiti artist Harriet Wood and singer Benjamin Francis Leftwich.
Set in a beautiful campus just minutes away from York Minster, the School enjoys an enviable location, just two hours away from London by train.
Bootham students are encouraged to change the world and the School employs a dedicated Social Action Co-Ordinator. Leavers gain entry to some of the UK’s leading universities including Cambridge, Oxford, Durham, UCL, King’s College, Central St. Martin’s and the Royal College of Music.
