Unlike many HMC member schools, it has been coeducational and took both day and boarding pupils since its foundation. Foundation and location The school was founded by Edith Douglas-Hamilton and established under joint headmistresses, Beatrice Ensor and Isabel King. It became firmly established under the headmastership of Paul Roberts (1928–1949) and was recognised as efficient by the Ministry of Education in 1935. Based at a mock-Tudor mansion, built by the brewer Charles Charrington in 1902, and in its estate, the school is on a hill from the centre of Farnham but is actually in the village of Frensham. Its grounds run into Rowledge. The headmaster Andrew Fisher, has returned to Frensham as Headmaster for the start of the 2023/2024 academic year.
