Ditcham Park School is a co-educational, independent school in the civil parish of Buriton, near Petersfield, in the English county of Hampshire.
Location
The school and its grounds are on the southern spur of Oakham Hill (202 m), one of the highest points on the South Downs. It is located some 2 kilometres south-southwest of the village of Buriton and 2 kilometres northeast of the hamlet of Chalton.[1] The premises was previously owned by Douai School (closed in 1999) and housed its Junior School until 1975.
Facilities
The school grounds include a walled garden, tennis courts and sports fields, which adjoin several farms and forests; the main section of the school is a Victorian manor house, built in 1887. A Technology and Arts building was added in 2001, a new sports hall in 2008 and renovations of the science block made in 2012. In 2017 a new, purpose-built Junior classroom block was completed. It was opened by BBC journalist, Clive Myrie on 20 September 2017. In 2018 Ditcham Dragonflies, the school nursery was opened.
