Background
History
Founded in 1803 by the Society of Licensed Victuallers (now operating as the Licensed Trade Charity), the school was originally situated in Kennington, London. As industrialization advanced, the school lost its "wholesome and airy environment", and so in 1922 left the city for a site in Slough. The same concern caused the school to move to its current home in Ascot in 1989. LVS Ascot was formerly known as Licensed Victuallers' School.
Visiting
LVS Ascot is set in 25 acre of land within Ascot, on the site formerly occupied by Heatherdown Preparatory School. The Queen was the school's patron. The school's 900 pupils, of which some 200 are boarders, are split into four houses: Boarders, Bell's, Courage, and Whitbread. Facilities include an indoor swimming pool, a 300-seat theatre, a recording studio, a sports centre, a gym, and a rock-climbing wall. A new all-weather sports pitch was opened by Olympic hockey medallist Sarah Thomas in 2014.
