Lancing College, set in outstanding countryside and housed in fine buildings, educates boys and girls to develop a love of learning and to reach their full potential, enriched by the arts and physical activities. It prepares young men and women of vision and integrity who will be of service to their fellow human beings.
From the moment that pupils join Lancing they become part of a community and – wherever they lay their heads at night – they all benefit from the all-inclusive care and support of a boarding school ethos. Lancing is a place of scholarship where pupils learn with integrity. Student are taught to be curious and to think deeply, for themselves and for the right reasons, underpinned by the essential attributes of learning. The school is not an exam factory and the teachers take delight in going far beyond teaching to the test. The learning is deeper and their excellent exam results are a wonderful by-product of the more profound and long-lasting scholarly rigour that underpins all that they do.
The sense of community and collective support that lays central to the Lancing experience is evident to anyone who visits Lancing. This warmth and genuine care for each other is expressed throughout the shared and individual interactions and is especially evident in the Houses, in the partnership between family and school, the Chapel and the spiritual life of the school.
