Sandroyd School is an independent co-educational preparatory school for both day and boarding pupils in Rushmore Park, near the village of Tollard Royal in Wiltshire. Sandroyd School was originally established by the Reverend Louis Herbert Wellesley Wesley as a small private coaching establishment for boys hoping to enter Eton College.〔(Sandroyd - History ) Publisher: ''Sandroyd School'', Tollard Royal, Wiltshire. Retrieved: 8 January 2013.〕 == History ==
Sandroyd School was founded by the Revd. L. H. Wellesley Wesley, at his home, Sandroyd House in Cobham in Surrey (now the home of Reed's School) in 1888, although as the Times Digital Archive reveals, he had been tutoring boys there ad hoc at least since 1882. Wellesley Wesley was a great-grandson of Charles Wesley.〔''The Sunday Magazine'' (Strahan & Company, 1869), (p. 263 )〕 There appears no truth in the statement previously included in this entry and thereby widely distributed on the Internet that Sandroyd School was founded in East London. This confusion arose because the school now occupying Sandroyd's original premises (Reed's School, q.v.) was indeed "founded in London's East End." From 1898 the school owed its further development, and success, to two able men, until then assistant masters at Elstree School, Charles Plumpton Wilson (- 1938 ) and William Meysey Hornby (- 1955 ) who took over from Wesley that year, as Headmaster and Deputy Headmaster respectively. Wilson retired in 1920, Hornby then took his place, until his own retirement in 1931. In 1939, the School signed a lease on Rushmore House and the surrounding Rushmore Park, home of the Pitt-Rivers family, lying in the centre of Cranborne Chase on the borders of Wiltshire and Dorset. In 1939, with the threat of the Second World War, the school moved there, where it has remained ever since. (A link between the two sites is that Sandroyd House was built in 1860 for the Pre-Raphaelite painter John Roddam Spencer Stanhope by the architect Philip Webb (1831–1915), the friend of William Morris, and it was Webb who remodelled the interior of Rushmore for General Pitt-Rivers twenty years later. He also designed an arched gateway for the Park, the drawings for which are in the Victoria and Albert Museum.)
