Box Hill School

Box Hill School is an independent coeducational boarding and day school situated in the village of Mickleham near Dorking, Surrey, England. The school has approximately 425 pupils aged 11–18. The school has a 60% day student:40% boarding student ratio, and as part of an international network (Round Square), around 25% of the students come from over 25 nations. The international environment of the school is deliberate, as part of the school's mission to develop students for life beyond school. Each student is assigned to a House on admission, with a family-based ethos and Houseparents to act as the guiding influence. The school has offered the International Baccalaureate since September 2008 and re-introduced A levels in 2013, meaning both are now available at Sixth Form.〔Box Hill School website academic overview http://www.boxhillschool.com/Academic-Overview〕 It is situated 40 minutes from central London on the direct Dorking and Leatherhead line.
==History==
Dalewood House, the main school building, was constructed in 1883 by a local developer called Charles J Fox. The House was designed by the Victorian architect, John Norton (who also designed a number of other buildings of distinction within the UK and Europe including the National Trust house ‘Tyntesfield’ in Somerset). Although the house was built during the Victorian era, its design is both mock Tudor and Gothic. The interior is full of hand-painted tiles, beautifully crafted stained glass windows, and fine wood panelling, with magnificent fireplaces throughout. In 1890 the house was sold to David Evans (one of the nineteenth century’s pre-eminent silk printers and chairman of 'David Evans & Co'), on whose death it passed to his daughter Lucie Fosberie until 1939. Before Box Hill School took occupation of the house it was in almost continuous private ownership by the Evans family, but was converted into use as a school building after the Second World War. The house was requisitioned by the Army as the headquarters of the Pay Corps during the Second World War. In 1951 the house was taken over and run as a school by two Australian sisters.
