Local Area

Colliers Green Voluntary Aided School is situated near to the beautiful town of Cranbrook at the heart of the Weald of Kent, well-known for its attractive streets, wonderful historic buildings and delightful countryside. 

The school is situated in the hamlet of Colliers Green, an idyllic, countryside location that lies around three miles from Cranbrook town centre, and benefits from the amenities and convenience of town life. Cranbrook is close to nearby public transport links with train stations in Headcorn and Staplehurst both a short drive from the town; both stations have frequent direct trains to London. The school is situated near to the A229 which allows access to the nearby town of Maidstone and the surrounding areas, and the A262 which allows access to Tonbridge and Tunbridge Wells.

Cranbrook is in the parish of the beautiful 12th Century St Dunstan's Church, known as the Cathedral of the Weald, and the school is proud of its long-standing close relations with both parish and diocese. The town is a close-knit community and home to a leisure centre, numerous clubs and societies and an array of cafes and pubs as well as the renowned Cranbrook Grammar School. There’s also plenty to see and do in and around the surrounding area with the famous Biddenden Vineyard, Sissinghurst and Scotney Castles and gardens and Bewl Water, all a short distance away.

Colliers Green hosts many opportunities for those with a love of the outdoors, such as walking in the surrounding countryside, a choice of golf courses, reservoirs, forests, and farmland and much more to be found nearby.
