We are very proud of all our children - they are happy and successful at Churchfields School. We are also proud of the range of schools that our children go onto for their secondary education and how well prepared they are for the next stage. Our aim is that they are ‘sad to leave but ready to move on’ both as successful learners and confident young people.

The majority of children from Churchfields tend to go onto a relatively small number of schools including: Eden Park High, Harris Beckenham, Harris Bromley, Langley Park Girls, Langley Park Boys, Kingsdale Foundation School, Bishop Justus and Hayes. 

Other pupils take up an offer at an independent (fee paying) school including Croydon High School GDST, Dulwich College, Royal Russell, Sydenham High School GDST, Trinity School or at academically-selective grammar schools including Wallington High School for Girls and Wallington County Grammar School.
