Orleans Park School offers secure parking an easy walk from the RFU Ground and many popular hostelries, yet at a convenient distance to avoid the pre- and post-match traffic chaos. We're particularly well-placed for visitors from the north, east and south. We are signposted in the local area.
Please scroll down this page for map and details of how to find us, now including SatNav!

Parking is organised and stewarded throughout arrivals and departures by parents, and all proceeds are devoted directly to the school. There is parking for approximately 140 cars. Toilets are available on the premises.

We must advise you that our parking initiative is popular, and we do recommend that you book in advance to guarantee a space. Pre-booking is accepted in good faith: we do not make a charge for this service, but ask that if you pre-book you take up your space by a stipulated time or advise us if you plan to arrive later. You may do this by email in advance or on a mobile number for the match day. Thank you.

*Minibuses are asked to email us directly with any available details of their vehicles.*
Vehicles are parked at their owner's risk. The school reserves the right to refuse entry. The school gates will be locked for the duration of the match, and will be locked at the times advised.

How to find Orleans Park School

SatNav For those of you blessed with every modern convenience, apparently all you need is our postcode -- TW1 3BB.
