Swanbourne House School

Swanbourne House School  is a co-educational Preparatory school for ages 3 to 13 based in the Buckinghamshire countryside, around 20 mins from Aylesbury and Milton Keynes. Our curriculum provides a broad education with strong academic foundations, allowing pupils with a range of abilities, interests and learning styles to flourish.  In January 2021, Swanbourne House School became part of The Stowe Group.

Our Schools are not only outstanding places to learn, they are great places to work too.  

Our aim is to provide our colleagues with the support they need so that they can respond enthusiastically to the challenges which being part of a busy school entails. At Swanbourne House we take a particular pride in our reputation for a broad education and we recognise that this is built very much on the commitment and skills of our colleagues.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion are central to The Stowe Group’s vision. We pride ourselves on our commitment as an organisation to welcome diversity, and we are committed to providing an inclusive environment where anyone with talent can thrive. To ensure we continue to best serve a diverse community, our ambition is to attract and retain a workforce that is representative of the diversity of our pupil body.

The Stowe Group is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children.  Applicants must be willing to undergo child protection screening appropriate to the post, including checks with past employers, the Disclosure and Barring Service and an online background check with our third party provider.
