  • Lancing College is a co-educational English independent school, founded in 1848 by Nathaniel Woodard, whose aim was to provide education based on sound principle and sound knowledge, firmly grounded in the Christian faith. Lancing was to be the first of a family of over 30 schools founded by Woodard. Typical of public schools, the college places emphasis on what might be described as traditional strengths - Anglican Christianity (chapel attendance is compulsory for all pupils, regardless of their religious beliefs) and sporting prowess. The college is based in 550 acres (2.2 km) of countryside in West Sussex near the village of Lancing, west of the city of Brighton and Hove, on the south coast of England. The college is situated on a hill which is part of the South Downs and the campus dominates the local landscape. The college overlooks the River Adur and the Ladywell Stream, a holy well or sacred stream within the College grounds has pre-Christian significance. The school is a member of the Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference. Girls were first admitted in 1971. The school is dominated by a Gothic revival chapel, and follows a high church Anglican tradition. The College of St Mary and St Nicolas (as it was originally known) was intended for the sons of upper middle classes and professional men; in time this became Lancing College, moving to its present site in 1857. The school's buildings of the 1850s were designed by the architect Richard Cromwell Carpenter, with later ones by John William Simpson. Lancing College boards boys and girls between the ages of 13 and 18 at a cost of about £26,000 a year. A small number of the students attend Lancing on academic and musical scholarships provided by the school; of the other pupils, some may receive some kind of bursary. Former pupils are referred to as OLs. In 2005 Lancing College was one of fifty of the country's leading private schools which were found guilty of running an illegal price-fixing cartel which had allowed them to drive up fees for thousands of parents. Each school was required to pay a nominal penalty of £10,000 and all agreed to make ex-gratia payments totalling three million pounds into a trust designed to benefit pupils who attended the schools during the period in respect of which fee information was shared.
