Boarding School Overview
Chelsea Independent College is a co-educational institution that is registered for up to 120 students between the ages of 14 and 20 years. It is located in modern buildings very near Fulham Broadway underground station in the London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. It opened in September 2004 and moved to the present site in April 2006. There are currently 150 students on roll, aged between 15 and 23 years, of whom 22 are of compulsory school age studying GCSE courses. Approximately half of the students are from overseas, including a high proportion from the Far East. In all, about 30 nationalities are represented in the student body. No student has a statement of special educational needs. Most students take courses with the aim of gaining admission to British universities. A significant number of students plan to read medicine and science-related subjects. The college was last inspected in May 2008 when it met all but one of the regulations for independent schools. Since August 2011, the college premises benefit from the addition of an annexe located in an adjacent street and this inspection has also established the maximum capacity of the new premises and the extent to which the requirements of the material change are met. The college aims to ‘provide an environment and ethos in which young people discover and develop their varied skills and talents, while also deriving from their daily challenges a sense of purpose, self-discipline and consideration for others. It stresses its ability to provide small teaching groups and to ‘cater for students from a wide range of academic and cultural backgrounds’.
