History and sites

edit

The school opened in 2012 and educates students aged 4–18 years.[1] The primary department occupies the site of the former Cobham police station, which it moved to in 2013.[4] Cobham Free School Senior Department and Sixth Form are both based in Munro House, the permanent main site for the school. The Senior Department was temporarily located at a former primary school site in West Molesey. The move to Munro House occurred at the start of the 2020/21 school year.

Ofsted

edit

In May 2014, the school had its first Ofsted inspection, when the school was adjudged to be "Good".[5] The inspectors noted that the headteacher has an inspiring vision for the school which the whole school community is fully behind.[5] In the 2017 following Ofsted inspection the school was again rated "Good".[6]
