Aldenham Education Group ('Aldenham' or 'AEG') is the exclusive international arm of the Aldenham Foundation. Steeped in history, Aldenham is listed as one of the oldest continuously operating schools in the world, existing on the same site in North London since its founding in 1597. Delivering 428+ years of academic excellence, Aldenham embodies both the best of timeless traditions and universal values, along with a well-established history of a forward-thinking ethos that has differentiated it from its peers over the centuries. 

All AEG schools are genuine extensions of Aldenham School in the United Kingdom, and not franchises like the vast majority of British schools operating overseas. Each school is owner-operated and delivers a deliberate, active continuation of Aldenham’s values, governance and academic standards.

Our educational philosophy combines unapologetic academic rigour with holistic development, aligned with the  English National Curriculum and enhanced through IEYC, IPC and IMYC  frameworks.

A 428+ year legacy of British excellence, shaping confident, future-ready pupils aged 3–14.

Aldenham School Riyadh is among the first international schools invited to the Kingdom under Vision 2030, reflecting a shared commitment to long-term educational excellence and national development.

​
