An independent schools guide
like no other.
Only facts.
No opinions.
No league tables. No rankings.
Attain is different – and has been for nearly 20 years. Our independent schools guide, featuring over 800 private schools, offers facts and not opinions. We cut through the marketing and highlight the key things parents need to think about in order to make informed choices.
But what are the best private schools in the UK?
There is no such thing as the best school for your child – only the right school. It is the one in which they will be happy, where they will feel comfortable to be themselves and where, ultimately, they will thrive.
To find the right school, you don't need to refer to league tables, rankings or awards. You just need to distil down the available facts about each potential school so you – and your child – can make the right choice.
Our private schools guide, born out of years of experience working with the independent sector, highlights possible independent schools in your area so you can decide if they might suit your son or daughter.
