Welcome to Moreton Hall Independent Boarding School, Shropshire.

Moreton Hall, established in 1913 by the Lloyd–Williams family, is now an independent boarding school and day school for girls aged 4-18 and boys aged 4-11, a total of 370 students. First Steps Nursery opened in 2007 for 1-4 year olds.

The school, a charitable trust, is set in 100 acres of beautiful parkland on the Shropshire/North Wales border, only an hour from Manchester and Birmingham International airports.

We pride ourselves on achieving outstanding academic results whilst ensuring that our students develop the broadest range of skills.

This web site aims to give you a good picture of the ethos and atmosphere of the school and to answer some of the questions that you inevitably have when looking at a new school.

If you like what you see here, then we urge you to get in touch and visit us, for no matter how comprehensive a web site tries to be, it can never be a substitute for your family seeing the school for yourselves and meeting the students and staff.

For those with specific interests in First Steps Nursery, Moreton First (the primary school), the Sixth Form, the International Study Centre and Facilities Hire we offer quick links to those areas on the left. Otherwise we invite you to enjoy the whole site.

Ryan is now based in Champoluc, Italy. 'Ryan was at Moreton First and they generously gave him the time to go to Italy each year to train,' explains his mother, Ruth Brown. 'But now he is based in the Alps so that he can train every day and go to school there.'
