Ludgrove School is an independent prep school for boys. It was founded in 1892 by Arthur Dunn at Ludgrove Hall, Cockfosters, North London. Arthur Dunn recruited a number of eminent sportsmen to assist him as masters and was succeeded, on his premature death, by two England international football captains, Gilbert Oswald Smith and William John Oakley, who became joint headmasters. In 1937 the school moved to its current site at Wokingham, Berkshire.
