Visiting Concord
If you have the opportunity to visit us, we would be delighted to welcome you and show you around.
In-person tours are available all year round
Visiting any school you are considering for your child is highly recommended. A visit to Concord can help you to see the range of facilities, but more importantly you can “feel” the unique atmosphere. It is also an opportunity to meet key members of staff and some of our current students.
To arrange to visit Concord, please contact our admissions office who will be happy to arrange a personal tour.
If you can’t visit us in person, do explore this website and please feel free to ask us if you have any questions.
