Dover College
Description
The official Facebook account for Dover College - encouraging independent minds to think differently since 1871. Dover College is a school with exceptional academic standards providing a world-class tailored education within a caring environment to ensure pupils achieve their potential.
With a commitment to small class sizes throughout the College we teach a creative English GCSE and A Level curriculum where confidence is nurtured, innovation is celebrated, inquisitiveness is encouraged, individuality is embraced and creativity is fostered. Our home-from-home ethos enables our boarding and day pupils to excel both in and out of the classroom.
We’re a British school celebrating British values of decency, respect, hard work and inclusivity. As a community we are proudly international and inclusive, representing a slice of our inter-connected and diverse society.
We benefit from having one of the finest school settings. Our buildings nestle within the grounds of a 12th century priory on the Kent Coast close to Canterbury. We have a tranquil location in the middle of a thriving town boasting a harbour and beach, an hour by train from London and around 90 minutes from Britain’s main airports.
