PREP

Independent preparatory schools do not have to follow the National Curriculum or submit test results to the Department for Education so there is no individual school performance data or star rating.

Visit the school's website to learn more about their unique curriculum, policies on testing and common leaver destinations (a good indicator of pupil progress). See our About page for information on Choosing A Prep School.

School Description

Pupils feel safe and happy at this school. In the words of one pupil who spoke to us, ‘This is a small school but a big family.’ Teachers make sure pupils know what is expected of them. This means pupils behave very well, without needing to be reminded. Children in the early years get off to an exceptionally strong start in their personal development. This is because teachers make sure children learn the importance of helping each other and working hard right from the beginning of their school days. Leaders and staff project a strong desire for every pupil to achieve well. They speak with a common voice when describing what they want pupils to learn and remember. Teachers make sure the agreed subject plans are taught accurately. The wide range of interesting and well-led clubs and activities is a strength of this school. They are very well attended and include opportunities for pupils to develop talents beyond the curriculum. Leaders consider pupils’ well-being thoroughly. Pupils told us they feel confident to tell an adult if they think they are being bullied. They remember what teachers explain to them about different types of discrimination. Pupils feel proud of their knowledge of their own faith and their understanding of the beliefs of others.
