The School has a fleet of 54 pianos, its own Music Library, and the chapel has 3 organs: a three manual instrument, built in 1984 by Frobenius of Denmark, a 5-stop continuo organ by Johnson and a Copeman Hart instrument, built in 2000.

The School

Oundle and Laxton Junior Schools have long been associated with the very best of modern independent education, especially boarding. The Schools take seriously their responsibility to pupils so that they can emerge as decent, open-minded adults; ambitious about what they can go on to achieve and contribute. Over 1400 pupils are on roll at the School, of whom 840 are full boarders. Academic results are steadfastly excellent.

A team of around 800 staff, both academic and support, ensure an education of the highest standard is in place across the Schools with the efforts of the whole team focused on this fundamental aim.
