St George’s College
St George’s was originally founded in Croydon in 1869 and was the very first Josephite school outside Belgium. The origins of the School were bound up with the Catholic renaissance movement in England.
St Maur’s Convent
The first St Maur’s school in England was opened in Camberwell in 1897, the sisters then moved to Weybridge in the following year.
Barrow Hills School
Needing more accommodation for the boys in the summer of 1950 the college brought 40 acres of grounds called Barrow Hills at Longcross.
Woburn Hill School
In the early 1950s the lower forms were separated from the main body of St George’s and two new schools were founded; Barrow Hills, the boarding preparatory school and Woburn Hill.
