Harrow School

Harrow is one of Britain’s leading independent schools, one of a very few schools still specialising in providing a high quality boarding school education for boys. Founded in 1572 under a Royal Charter granted by Elizabeth I it has been providing education to boys for over 400 years.

Two members of our Governing Body work at Harrow School and we have been delighted with the school’s efforts to support St Jérôme, by allowing us to use their facilities to hold our Sports Days.
