College Life

College is a busy place. Whether you are a pupil, a member of staff, a parent or visitor you cannot fail to gain a sense of purposefulness, of the focus and the fun, which permeate College life. Standards and expectations are high; after all we want our children to be the best! Commitment to academic excellence, responsible leadership and moral integrity within a supportive and nurturing environment provide an education experience that is rewarding for all those involved.

As a happy, tolerant and vibrant community we are proud of our distinguished past and look forward to an exciting future filled with success in many different activities. In this section we attempt to touch on the depth and the diversity of opportunity available to students in their work at Dowen, their extra-curricular activities and their time in the house. We support initiative, encourage the taking of responsibility and seek to foster an atmosphere, which balances order and individual freedom.

In aiming for a fulfilling yet a balanced life, every student at Dowen is helped by a few people- their Housemistress/master, the student affairs coordinators and their class Tutor. At each stage in their education, a housemistress, student affairs coordinators, and class tutors will get to know him/her extremely well and will be a source of guidance and support through their teenage years. In addition, there are members of staffs and who specialize in certain areas, (e.g. Higher Education, Careers and Counselling) and who are always on hand to give advice.

From the Chairman


"We must reassert ourselves in public education and reintroduce the traditional value system that made this country great."

"These words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart: and thou shalt teach them diligently unto the children"
"We want our children
TO BE THE BEST".
