Independent Schools Show
The first ever independent schools show takes place in London's Battersea park in early November


The first ever Independent Schools Show will take place in Battersea Park on November 2 - 3, 2007.
It brings more than a hundred of the top UK independent preparatory and senior schools to one London venue.
The show is being touted as 'the essential show for parents of children between the ages of 2 and 18'. And it covers all areas of the private sector: day and boarding, girls or boys, prep or senior.
Amongst those exhibiting are Cheltenham Ladies? College, Stowe, Wellington, St Mary?s Calne, Kings Canterbury, Bedales, Summer Fields, Cothill, The Dragon and Kensington Prep.
An Education Theatre with respected speakers such as Dr Anthony F Seldon, Professor Chris Woodhead, Stowe?s Headmaster Dr Anthony Wallersteiner, and Mrs Vicky Tuck, Principal of Cheltenham Ladies? College, will prove an invaluable resource and exciting debating forum for the inquisitive parent.

Sign up for the Country Life Newsletter
Exquisite houses, the beauty of Nature, and how to get the most from your life, straight to your inbox.
Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
