School Destinations

At Marden Lodge, we share GLF’s commitment that all our children transition successfully to their next stage of education, training, or employment.  At the end of Year 6,  Marden Lodge pupils progress to a variety of secondary settings, including de Stafford School, Riddlesdown Collegiate, Oasis Academy and Warlingham School & Sixth Form College.

Our teams work tirelessly to achieve a smooth transition and create opportunities for pupils to enjoy a range of taster experiences in secondary settings.

Links with de Stafford School in Caterham: Pupils in Years 3-6 benefit from taster and enrichment days and events throughout the year such as the Festival of Sport, Fun Run, Science workshops, Mathletics competitions and swimming. At Marden, our children in Years 3-5 learn how to swim at de Stafford's swimming pool facilities.

de Stafford was rated ‘Good’ in all categories in the summer of 2024. Pupils at de Stafford have guaranteed admission to Reigate College and East Surrey College. For more info, please visit https://www.destafford.org.uk/
