What better way to start the new academic year than with another laudatory review in the Tatler Schools Guide 2023?

Giving a real insight into life at MCS, the guide recognises our “stupendous” academic results whilst highlighting our partnership work with Helen & Douglas House and Mustardseed Junior School.

There’s also high praise for life beyond the curriculum, from our County Championship-winning girls’ hockey team to the fact that 80 per cent of pupils at MCS learn an instrument.

"Its sports pitches, known as School Field, are possibly the most picturesque in the country."

"Though there is a lot going on at MCS, 'we have a lot of fun here', according to head Helen Pike."

The Tatler Schools Guide is an impartial guide to all the best public and prep schools in the UK. Each year the Tatler Schools’ team of researchers visit hundreds of schools, showcasing the best of them in the October issue.
