About this event
Summerhill School is recognised as one of the strongest schools in the West Midlands, with fantastic students, facilities and staff.
In May 2024, Ofsted said that "Community and togetherness are at the heart of this wonderful school."
Our GCSE outcomes consistently place us at the top of the Dudley area: but we are not complacent and want to drive the school forward to be even more successful. We are very much a school that looks at the holistic student and we place huge emphasis on the experience that our students get at Summerhill. We have a passion to allow all students to flourish socially and emotionally as well as academically. Cultural capital is an essential part of a student’s journey through Summerhill and the House system plays a big part in the life of our school.
As you would expect from such a high-performing and popular school, our Open Evenings are incredibly busy. All visitors must pre-book an arrival time. Your visit will start with a short talk and this will be followed by a tour of the school.
Frequently asked questions
We are also running tours of the school at 9:15am every weekday from 6th – 15th October. Please book a space via EventBrite. This tour will not include a formal talk but will be an opportunity to see the school "at work" on a normal day.
Each visit will start with a brief talk from the Headteacher and current students.
There will be lots of staff and students around the school who will be keen to answer your questions. If you still have any queries at the end of your tour then members of the Senior Leadership Team will be available to help.

Our school admissions are handled entirely by Dudley Local Authority's School Admissions Service. Summerhill School staff have no influence on who is / isn't offered a place. You can find out more at https://www.dudley.gov.uk/residents/learning-and-school/school-information/school-admissions/
This is one of the most common questions but unfortunately it's impossible for us to answer. Each year the admissions completely depend on who else applies for a place, where they live and whether they meet any of the special criteria.
We are unlikely to be able to accommodate visitors who arrive without a ticket. We will give priority to visitors who have a ticket. You may be asked to wait until a timeslot where tickets are available. We will help you to book a ticket if necessary.
If you arrive after your scheduled time we will do our best to fit you in but there may be a delay if the following sessions are fully booked.
Unfortunately, we have to limit the number of people in each talk and around the building for safety reasons. This means we are unable to add extra visitors once all of the tickets for a time have been issued.
