Over the last 70 years, our three CATS schools in the UK (CATS Cambridge, CATS Canterbury and CATS London) have developed three distinct educational experiences to fit the many different needs of our students. We are therefore rebranding our three CATS UK schools, to better showcase the unique student experience and the separate school communities our students and staff are so proud to be a part of.
From the 12th October 2022, CATS Canterbury will be renamed to The Worthgate School.

The award-winning The Worthgate School, Canterbury, prepares students aged 13-18 for university success.
Consistently voted as the safest university city in the UK, Canterbury welcomes over 30,000 students from around the world to its three universities. It’s a vibrant city offering a range entertainment and cultural opportunities such as theatres, shopping centres, museums. It’s also only a 50-minute train journey to London.
The inspection by ISI in March 2023 found that the quality of the pupils’ academic and other achievement is excellent.
Canterbury has often been voted the UK’s safest university city.
The blend of city, coast and countryside means that there is plenty for you to enjoy and explore, with direct links to London.
Unlike traditional boarding schools in the UK, everyone in a Worthgate School class is in the same situation – away from home, needing help to acclimatise, wanting to make new friends and committed to improving their English rapidly. Everything we do is aimed at helping you achieve this, from teachers who know how to adapt lessons to build confidence in English to house parents who provide care and concern during your stay.
Our campuses offer single and double bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms in purpose built accommodation, because we know if you are comfortable and relaxed in your surroundings you will flourish academically, socially and emotionally. Throughout your time with us, you will be treated as a young adult. Our houseparents are available 24 hours per day to provide the support and nurturing you need to thrive.
Whatever your aspirations are, we offer a wide range of programmes and subjects that will help you progress. You will receive one-on-one guidance on applying to university. You will visit a range of campuses, attend workshops to help you perfect your personal statement and receive individual support such as interview practice.
In addition, you will have access to a range of activities through our Key Professions Programme to help you get a head start in a competitive career.
