All Hallows was founded as a boys' school in 1938 by Francis Dix but not at the current location.
Shortly after World War II, the school moved into the Grade II* listed Cranmore Hall — the former home of Sir Richard and Lady Muriel Paget — which had been used as a maternity hospital during the war.
Also included: sport, music, drama, art, creative design and Forest School / Outdoor Education.
There are a mix of full and flexi-boarders, and regular age-appropriate activities are held to keep children entertained in the evening.
