Two Sites, One Family

Our 11+ journey starts in Year 7 at The Downs Malvern prep school and continues at the senior school, Malvern College, for Years 9 to 13. Day school and Day-Boarding available throughout pupils’ Malvern Journey.

  • Our school campuses are just 7-minutes apart, each situated at the foot of the Malvern Hills.
  • Full, busy school days, up to 7 days a week meaning you don’t have to find breakfast clubs, wraparound care or be tied to a 3.30pm pick-up.
  • We’re on your doorstep and have excellent transport links, including school-operated local transport.
  • An admired reputation. Malvern alumni have shaped the world of science, sport, literature and the arts for generations.
  • Our offer is vast. If your child currently has an evening club, out-of-school lesson or Saturday morning sport – there’s every chance we offer it here.
  • With our Day and Day-Boarding offering for pupils local to the school, our pastoral support is second to none.

Fees and Charges

We offer education for boys and girls aged 6 months up to 18 years.

Joining the Malvern College Family of Schools from 11+ or earlier, at The Downs Malvern, unlocks lower day and day-boarding fees when transitioning to our secondary school, Malvern College.

Whether you opt for our day or day-boarding model, you’ll find the perfect setup to suit your child.
