Godolphin & Chafyn Grove Partnership

This year marks a significant milestone for education in Salisbury as Godolphin and Chafyn Grove come together to enhance the educational opportunities for children in the area.

It was recently announced that Chafyn Grove School in Salisbury will be joining the United Learning Group, of which Godolphin is a proud member. This exciting development paves the way for both schools to collaborate and deliver an exceptional educational experience for pupils aged 3–19 in Salisbury.

Despite the best efforts of staff and leadership, declining numbers at Godolphin Prep have presented challenges in sustaining an environment we strive to provide for every child. As a result, Godolphin Prep will close at the end of the academic year, with current pupils being offered places at Chafyn Grove.

To ensure the best outcomes for pupils, Godolphin and Chafyn Grove are working closely to provide a seamless transition. Pupils from Godolphin Prep will continue to benefit from an excellent prep education at Chafyn Grove, with access to a larger school environment offering greater opportunities, resources, and experiences.

As part of this partnership, a reciprocal arrangement ensures that pupils completing their education at Chafyn Grove will have a guaranteed place at Godolphin for their secondary schooling, should they wish to continue their journey with the Godolphin community.

This announcement reflects a shared vision for the future, combining the traditions and strengths of both schools while enhancing the educational landscape for families in Salisbury. Both schools will remain separate entities, however, pupils across both school communities will benefit from shared access to exceptional facilities and resources.
