Ibstock Prospectus - Digital 2024

First Class Facilities Our School is centred around The Orchard, which plays host to outdoor concerts, debates and recreational activities.

Ibstock’s magnificent main theatre comprises a stage, auditorium and gallery with seating for up to 250. Facilities include an orchestra pit, extensive foyer areas, green room and dressing rooms. With two further studio theatres and two full-time theatre technicians, we offer outstanding opportunities for pupils, whether centre stage or behind the scenes. A brand new Innovation Centre is equipped with the latest Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) devices. The centre includes a recording studio for podcasting and audio editing, a green screen stage for video production and motion capture as well as a sector-leading Esports Arena. Numerous art, design and technology studios, innovative ‘armadilla’ music practice pods and IT suites complete the first-class facilities available at our School.

The Main House building, constructed in 1913, blends seamlessly with the New School buildings. Our impressive modern, wood-panelled refectory won a RIBA London Award 2022 and a RIBA National Award 2022 and is enjoyed by pupils of all ages for daily lunches and assemblies. Our spacious on-site sports facilities include a large indoor sports hall, multi-use-games-area, two football/rugby pitches, swimming pool and brand-new climbing wall. In addition, Ibstock enjoys regular use of nearby facilities at Barn Elms Sports Trust and Centre, The Roehampton Cricket Club and the All England Lawn Tennis Club. The expansive glass-fronted Senior Library is arranged over two floors and is a haven for private study and reading. Overseen by our specialist Librarian, it boasts an impressive and diverse collection alongside subscriptions to online journals and periodicals.
