A reverse commute is essentially the opposite of a traditional suburb-to-city commute. Rather than travelling into London from elsewhere, a reverse commute is for those who already live in the city and travel elsewhere for school.

Why travel out of London for school?
Whilst London is home to many fantastic schools, there are countless more options available just a stone’s throw from the city. Life outside of the big city is a different experience entirely, so many choose to give their children the best of both worlds with a reverse commute school. Whether you’re looking for a prep school in the country or just something a little less city-centric, we’ve got you covered.
