Other Amenities
At Cumnor House School for Girls in Purley, Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) support is overseen by a dedicated, qualified Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENCo) within an inclusive mainstream environment. Part of the Cognita Schools network, the school’s Learning Support Department utilises a comprehensive “assess, plan, do, and review” pathway to identify and accommodate mild-to-moderate learning differences, including specific learning difficulties (such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, and dyspraxia), neurodivergent profiles (such as ADHD and ASD), and processing, focus, or working memory challenges.

Entry Requirements
Non-selective at the primary point of entry (Reception), prioritizing children transitioning upward from the school’s own nursery branches. Admission involves an informal taster day to check basic baseline “best fit” capabilities and social readiness. For older year groups, admissions remain gentle but look closely at character alongside progress reports from the child’s current school.
Key Dates for Admissions
Operates a rolling admissions system based on seat availability. Main entry registration for standard Autumn term cohorts typically closes or fills during the preceding Autumn/Spring terms.
Results
Holds an outstanding academic reputation. In 2026 alone, a single graduating Year 6 cohort of girls secured 36 distinct scholarship awards across academic, sports, and creative disciplines.
Renowned as a primary feeder to top-tier highly selective girls’ grammar and independent senior schools. Over 80% of applicants regularly clear the first round for elite grammar entries, with major destinations including Wallington High School for Girls, Nonsuch High School, Caterham School, Reigate Grammar School, Woldingham School, Sutton High, and Wycombe Abbey.
