Information about the School
New Hall is a Catholic independent boarding & day School for girls and boys aged 1-19. New Hall School operates the highly successful ‘diamond model’, where students are educated in co-educational classes from ages 1 to 11 and at Sixth Form. However, from ages 11 to 16 they are taught in single-sex lessons.
From the moment New Hall students first travel up the mile-long, tree-lined avenue that leads to the grand façade of the former Tudor palace, they will be given individual opportunities to grow, learn, be challenged and to develop into confident young men and women. New Hall is set in an idyllic and convenient location, on the outskirts of the City of Chelmsford, just 30 minutes by train from London and within easy reach of all major London airports.
As a Catholic independent boarding & day school, we aim to educate the whole person: academically, creatively and socially, in a community which also nurtures the spiritual dimensions of human life.
