Our Chapel is genuinely considered by present and past pupils to be the heart of the College. This magnificent building, with its glorious soaring architecture, lifts the hearts and minds of those who enter it, giving them space to think and reflect, to pray and to worship. Chapel provides pupils with a firm foundation on which to build their lives and teaches them the value of justice, peace, love, compassion, forgiveness and integrity – things which are central to the Christian way of life, and indeed to all humanity.

The whole school attends a service every morning during the week; the main service is on Sunday evenings at 8.00 pm, to which parents and visitors are most welcome. The Eucharist is celebrated three times a week in the Crypt Chapel, and every three weeks the College Eucharist replaces the Evening Prayer service on a Sunday. Cheltenham College is a Christian foundation and Chapel services follow the practice of the Church of England. We do, however, maintain and try to encourage a deep respect for other faiths.
