One of the key aims of Isleworth & Syon is to be a modern and innovative school, giving students the best platform to learn, achieve and succeed during their years at the school. One way that we do this is by offering our boys top-class facilities in which to get the best education that they can.

The school has resided on Ridgeway Road since 1939. It consists of the main building and various later additions, such as the art and design & technology areas and Sports Hall. Browse the tabs for more information on what the school has to offer.

Each of the general-purpose classrooms is equipped with projector technology and an interactive whiteboard, giving the teachers the opportunity to craft more engaging lessons. These classrooms are grouped by subject area generally, and take up two floors. There are also:

  • seven science laboratories;
  • three art rooms with pottery and darkroom facilities;
  • six design & technology workshops, containing computerised lathe facilities and a food technology classroom;
  • three extensively-equipped computer rooms with multi-media machines running Windows 10, and high-speed internet access;
  • a music suite, containing music technology facilities equipped with modern Apple iMacs, plus three music practise rooms;
  • a drama studio with lighting board;
  • a sixth form study room – a designated facility to allow our senior students the opportunity to maximise their potential;
  • an extended library with extensive computer access
  • a large assembly hall used for school and community productions.

Display boards are plentiful both in classrooms and across the corridors, with student work displayed and updated regularly to encourage motivation and engage student interest.

The sports provision is very important at Isleworth & Syon. We have our own playing fields, containing a third-generation astroturf pitch. Floodlights were installed in 2017 to allow the facility to be let in the evenings. The fields also have a very spacious grassed area which contains several cricket nets for use during the summer. We also have use of recreational facilities at the nearby Busch Corner. These facilities allow for a variety of sports to be played during PE lessons and at break-time and lunch-time.

As well as these, the school has extensive playground areas, with basketball hoops and markings for various other sports. There are also five table-tennis tables designated to each year group, which have been installed in our redesigned courtyard. The school’s gymnasium is equipped with various gymnastic apparatus, while the sports hall has basketball hoops, football goals and badminton nets. Inside the Sports Hall is a gym for more senior students which includes weight lifting facilities and rowing machines.

Summer 2018 has been a busy time for developments – more information coming soon.
