About the school: Founded in 1611, Charterhouse moved to its current 250 acre site in Godalming, Surrey in 1872. Along with a strong academic record, the school also has a thriving arts scene, and puts on seven to eight full scale major theatre productions each year. The drama department also offers LAMDA Speech and Drama lessons. In addition to drama, there are around 80 extra-curricular clubs and societies; from alternative music to world cinema and wine appreciation.
