From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pennthorpe School is mixed independent school in Rudgwick, West Sussex, England. At 2006, 329 pupils between the ages of two and thirteen attend. The school started in the 1930's in Kent as a Christian Boarding school for boys. Several years later the school moved to its current Location in a manor house in Rudgwick. The school remained an all boys school until 1992 when it officially became co-educational. At thirteen the pupils leave onto their secondary school through common entrance. Many of the pupils go to such schools as Hurstpierpoint College, Reigate Grammar School and Cranleigh School. Since the turn of the century the school has had an impressive 100% Common Entrance record. Simon Moll has been the headmaster since that time.
