History
It was opened on 29 September 1865 as a boys' school 'to provide a sound and plain education, on the principles of the Church of England, and on the public school system, for the sons of farmers and others engaged in commercial pursuits'. It grew rapidly and by the 1880s had more than 300 pupils although it declined over the next 30 years and in 1910 numbers dropped to 150.
Cranleigh started to admit girls in the early 1970s and became fully co-educational in 1999. The current headmaster is Martin Reader with former East Housemaster, Simon Bird, as the Deputy Head.
The Good Schools Guide at one time described the school as a "Hugely popular school with loads on offer, improving academia and mega street cred. Ideal for the sporty, energetic, sociable, independent and lovely child."[1]
The school's Trevor Abbott Sports Centre was opened by Sir Richard Branson and the West House was opened by Baroness Greenfield.[2] New building projects have included the extension onto Cubitt House as well as an[3] environmentally friendly Woodland Workshop and a new £10 million Academic Centre named the Emms Centre. Named after David Emms, this was opened by Lord Patten of Barnes in 2009. The building includes new facilities for Science and Modern Languages as well as a lecture theatre.[4] A £2 million renovation of the chapel in 2009 included the installation of a £500,000 Mander organ.[5]
In a 2015 survey,Шаблон:Which it was rated as the third best sporting school in the UK.Шаблон:Cn Its teams won the Rosslyn Park National Sevens Tournament consecutively, in both 2016 and 2017.
Cranleigh School also has a sister school based in Abu Dhabi which opened in September 2014.[6]
