Our History

Castle School was founded in 2003 by Andrew Caldwell and Devrim Guven.

It was a very small school and it has grown steadily as a result of their teaching philosophy and owners’ philosophy.

In 2003 the school moved into its building at 12 Dyke Road and still uses this building for administrative purposes and for some classes.

In 2007 the school purchased a new building at 41 Dyke Road. After a complete refurbishment, the school now has a comfortable and welcoming educational environment with internet access in all rooms and classrooms, excellent lighting, central heating, a small computer room, a snack and refreshment room, and a well equipped Staff Room.

In 2007 Martin Warters joined the team, and this resulted in a huge improvement in academic standards. In 2008 Andy Cowley was employed as the new Principal, and his contribution to all aspects of the academic management of the school has been very beneficial to all the teachers and students at the school.

In 2011 Martin Warters left us for the relative calm of North Carolina and he has been relaced by Emma Claydon who brings a fresh perspective to Castle School. Late in 2011 Severine Lee was hired as Customer Service/Welfare Manager and this has been received very favourably by the student body.
