Large educational groups in the United Kingdom continue to grow, bringing together strong independent schools. The latest step in this direction was the joining of two well-known institutions — Pangbourne College and St Gabriel's — to Mill Hill Education Group. This decision will expand the group's presence in the county of Berkshire, creating new opportunities for collaboration between schools. Following the merger, Mill Hill Education Group will comprise 16 schools in the United Kingdom and beyond.
In Berkshire, the group now brings together 3 educational institutions:
-
Pangbourne College,
- St Gabriel's,
- Heathfield School.
Despite joining a large educational group, both institutions will continue to operate in their usual format, retaining their own traditions, values, and unique approach to education — daily school life, educational programs, and atmosphere will remain the same. At the same time, the schools will be able to benefit from the larger network: sharing best practices, receiving additional support, and participating in joint projects.
