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, including children in the early years, enjoy being part of this welcoming, inclusive and friendly school. They are enthusiastic when speaking about their learning and rightly proud of their work. Music, with opportunities to sing and perform are popular features of their day-to-day experience. Kindness is at the heart of school values. This is reflected in pupils’ good behaviour in lessons and around the school. They play and eat sociably together at break and lunchtimes. They feel safe in school. If they have a concern, they know they can speak out through their ‘Network Hands’ adult and the ‘voice boxes’ in classrooms. Bullying is extremely rare. Children in the early years are helped to settle in quickly as they become familiar with expected routines. In all classes, pupils enjoy and listen carefully to the stories teachers read to them at the end of every school day. They get excited about school visits to interesting places, which help them to learn about new ideas. The range of after-school clubs are well attended. Pupils are tolerant and respectful of individual differences. They are taught about the importance of positive relationships from the outset. Consequently, Gurukula is a calm and purposeful place to learn.
