Since welcoming boys as well as girls in 2025, every classroom, conversation and experience has been enriched. From September 2026, we are proud to be Chafyn Godolphin: a leading all-through co-educational day school for children aged 6 months to 19, with boarding available from Year 4 through to Sixth Form, in the heart of Salisbury.
