The Oratory School, Catholic boarding school in Woodcote, England
The Oratory School spans across extensive grounds featuring educational buildings, sports facilities, and dormitories for students aged 11 to 18.
John Henry Newman established the school in 1859 in Edgbaston before it moved to Caversham Park and finally settled in Woodcote during 1942.
Students participate in Latin language studies and stage annual Latin plays, continuing an educational tradition that spans over 160 years.
The school maintains a student-to-teacher ratio that allows individual attention while offering both day and boarding options for families.
The campus contains one of only four real tennis courts found in British schools, hosting national and international championships.
