Felsted School
Founded in 1564 by Lord Riche, a Lord Chancellor of England, Felsted School is a co-educational boarding and day school for 400 pupils. The school has a fine tradition and reputation for academic and sporting excellence and numbers Oliver Cromwell's son among its past pupils.
The buildings of the school show the growth of the institution from its Tudor origins, through to the 19th century, when the School expanded greatly and School House was established. Recent development has been far-reaching with the construction of modern classroom blocks, a new dining hall and sports facilities.

Accommodation
Students are accommodated in recently modernised rooms in small boarding houses located around the campus. Each boarding house has its own common room with television and small kitchen. The bedrooms are mainly single rooms, but there are some small dormitories. There are ample toilet, shower and bath facilities, and a full six days a week laundry service is included in the price.

Sports facilities
Felsted School boasts magnificent indoor and outdoor sports facilities. Indoor facilities include a swimming pool and a large sports hall. Outdoors, there are numerous tennis courts and extensive playing fields.

Activities
A full programme of afternoon and evening activities is arranged. Students opting for football have coaching five afternoons per week.
