Chetwynde School is a Free school in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, England. It includes a kindergarten, primary school and secondary school. It is a member of South Cumbria Multi-Academy Trust.
Founded as a private primary school, it was known as Our Lady's Chetwynde School and Chetwynde Convent Preparatory School at different periods of its history before it expanded to being a coeducational independent school for children aged 3 to 18.[1] Before 2014 it was Barrow's only independent school and the only one in the town which educated children from nursery all the way to sixth form.[2][3] The school became a state-funded free school in September 2014 for pupils aged 4–16 years.
