About Us

Welcome to Dulwich College

A vibrant community from DUCKS to Sixth Form

Here at Dulwich College academic excellence goes hand in hand with personal development. Our pupils thrive on a rich curriculum, outstanding wellbeing provisions, exceptional Creative and Performing Arts, Sports and Co-curricular opportunities, and a compassionate pastoral care framework. Whether discovering a new language, building a go-kart, composing music, mastering a sport, exploring the archives or supporting the wider community, we believe in educating the whole person.

Global citizens

Alleynians are not only passionate learners, they are global citizens. From extensive clubs and expeditions to Combined Cadet Force, Duke of Edinburgh, and community action projects, pupils build resilience and empathy. With links to our international network of Colleges, and with peers from the Dulwich Foundation Schools and other local schools, our pupils dedicate hundreds of hours each term to service, mentorship, and charitable causes.

Wellbeing woven into every day

Over the course of the Senior School, each pupil receives around 100 focused hours on personal development, covering mental health, emotional literacy, resilience, digital citizenship, careers, and life skills. “Safe spaces” like the Yelcho Room, trained wellbeing staff, medical care, chaplaincy, peer mentoring, and specialist programmes support every stage of a pupils’ time at Dulwich.

Outstanding outcomes and life beyond Dulwich

Dulwich pupils grow to be confident, thoughtful and creative adults. Our university placements and leavers’ destinations remain exceptional, sustained by consistently excellent teaching and guidance.
