Davenant Foundation School, Loughton

At Davenant Foundation School, we offer an excellent and wide range of facilities and venues for hire for the communities of Loughton, Theydon Bois, Epping Forest and beyond. We believe the local community should have access to these facilities when the school is not in session, for a reasonable charge.

Whether you are an organization based in Essex or east London and looking to host a regular event or workshop, a sports team or club looking for a venue to host weekly training and development, or a local club looking for somewhere to make your regular home, we have the facilities for you. Spaces available from £20 per hour.

NB: We are unable to let to private individuals for occasions such as parties.

The school is very accessible locally in Essex or from east London: under 10 minutes’ drive from both the M25 and M11 motorways; a 15 minute walk from Debden London Underground Station (Central Line); or 10 minute cab ride from Chingford Overground rail station.

We are looking to expand the facilities we are able to offer, but at present, we regularly let the following school facilities: 6th form common room, classrooms, drama studio, gym, hall, IT room, MUGA, unmarked playing field, sports hall, swimming pool and tennis courts.

Our lettings are open 7 days a week with closures only during bank holidays and some school holidays. There is ample parking available onsite and our friendly staff are always available to help. All hirers are required to have their own Public Liability and Child Protection Policies and to acknowledge and adhere to the school’s DBS and child protection requirements, and hirers’ terms and conditions.

All our facilities can now be booked online, with each facility page having detailed information about what we have available. Should you wish to clarify anything, please use the messaging feature available on the facility page.
