Age 7 to 13

Welcome to
Prep School

Our Prep School is a busy, thriving community full of possibilities. But we’re about far more than just being busy. For a start, doing lots of different things teaches your child how to prioritise – to take charge of what they are doing and when. Even more importantly, they will quickly find things they enjoy and become good at. Here, becoming good at things and enjoying doing them becomes normal. It becomes a habit.

It could start with music, which leads to drama, which leads to debating. We are confident that the vast selection of activities and interests here in our school will give your child confidence in themselves which will translate into their work in the classroom. The down-to-earth atmosphere here is, in fact, the perfect launch pad for outstanding performance.

Bill Toleman
Head of the Prep School

Our aim is to ensure your child is happy, confident, and well-motivated. We want them to enjoy coming to school and enjoy learning. Your child, as a result of their education with us, will be able to contribute constructively to society, and play a full role in it, whatever their chosen path.
