The first headmaster was called Alfred Le Peton. In 2013 the school went co-educational and now has close to 400 boys and girls, served by nearly 30 teachers. Sandford Park School, founded in 1922, is a small private non-denominational co-educational secondary school with pupils from a wide variety of backgrounds, countries and cultures, creating a unique environment within the school. The school buildings are situated on a beautifully secluded 2.5 hectares of land, with two protected structures on site. O’Donnell + Tuomey have proposed an overall vision for the School which is to create a campus atmosphere for the school community. The masterplan proposes that the existing ‘village street’ of the school extends from the new Le Peton Building at its southern end (completed 2019) to a future new Arts Block to the east near the main entrance. Along this street a series of inter-connected spaces expand and contract, allowing the staff and students to interact with one another.
