Visit Sidcot School

We know how important it is to visit a school before applying for a place, and we’re always happy to welcome prospective parents and students at Sidcot. 

Located in the heart of Somerset, our independent school for day students and Boarders is surrounded by stunning scenery and we’re extremely proud of our state-of-the-art facilities, which we’d love to show you around.

We host regular open mornings throughout the year, where visitors can speak to teachers and current students, and enjoy a tour of our facilities and grounds, taking in classrooms, Boarding houses, and our Equestrian Centre

Sidcot School Open Mornings

Open Mornings provide a chance to visit the Junior and/or Senior School. You can explore the campus, see the facilities, meet students, parents and staff, and get a feel for the unique Sidcot atmosphere. We have one Open Morning each term.

Book A Private School Tour

If you can’t attend our next Sidcot open day, we can arrange a personal tour of Sidcot at a time that better suits your requirements. During a private school tour of Sidcot, you’ll be shown around by a current student, and will have the chance to see some lessons, our fantastic facilities, speak to members of staff, and perhaps even chat with the Head. A personal tour is a great chance to see Sidcot for yourself to help with your application process.

Tour and Tea with the Head

Wednesday 10 June 2026, 2:00pm - 4:00pm

Come and join our Head, James Jones for tea, a friendly chat, and a relaxed tour of our School. It’s a lovely chance to ask questions, meet us in an informal setting, and get a real feel for the warm, welcoming community that makes Sidcot School so special.

Parent Workshops

At Sidcot, we believe that education is a partnership, and our Parent Workshops are designed to provide you with practical tools and expert insights to navigate the complexities of modern childhood. From exploring the science of reducing screen time and its impact on development to supporting mental wellbeing and study habits, these sessions offer a supportive environment for sharing experiences and learning alongside fellow parents.
