The Chorister School is a co-educational independent school for the 3 to 11 age range. It is part of the Durham Cathedral Schools Foundation, in Durham, England. It consists of a Pre-School and a pre-preparatory school based on the site of the former Bow, Durham School, and a preparatory day and boarding school at the Cathedral Site. The preparatory site is set in an enviable position on a World Heritage Site, in a range of Grade I listed buildings adjacent to Durham Cathedral, surrounded by the woodlands and riverbanks of the River Wear. The majority of the pupils at the school attend on a 'day' basis, with about 20 boarders of both sexes making up the balance. Pupils do not have to be Cathedral choristers, but those boys and girls who are choristers could be either boarders or day pupils. Pupils are taught in small classes in a collection of historic buildings all of which formed part of the college, or cathedral close. The Chorister School merged with nearby Durham School, 28 September 2021 to become part of Durham Cathedral Schools Foundation. Source: Wikipedia (en)
