[edit] History
Sibford School was established as a co-educational boarding school for the children of Quaker families in 1842.[citation needed]
[edit] Divisions
The school is comprised of three divisions of students, based on age. The Junior Department, Orchard Close, caters for children aged 4 - 11, and had its own head, Lesley Nell, until recently. For pupils aged 11- 16, there is a Senior School, and the school's sixth form, for those aged 16 - 18, is called Sibford Sixth.[1]
