School Description

The Cedars School is an independent day school for boys. It is located in a detached Grade II listed 18th century building in its own grounds bordering Lloyd Park in Croydon. The school was registered in 2013 to provide full-time secondary education for boys aged 11–18 years. There are currently 24 pupils on roll, all of whom are aged 11 or 12 years, and are taught in two classes. None of them has a statement of special educational needs. It is one of four schools in London which are founded and owned by the PACT Educational Trust. It aims to ‘develop the whole child, in close partnership with parents, through a deeply embedded character programme grounded in Catholic principles, which will enable each boy to fulfil his potential through acquiring virtues in a climate that balances freedom with responsibility’. The school’s ethos is founded on Catholic principles and takes its inspiration from the educational ideas of St Josemaria Escriva, the founder of Opus Dei. It welcomes pupils of all faiths. The school opened in September 2013. This is its first inspection.
