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.

Sherborne House School Parent Reviews



Average Parent Rating


“Fantastic School”


Sherborne House is a fantastic school with lots of opportunities for its students. The small class sizes allow plenty of attention from teachers who are committed to a high level of learning.
“Highly recommend”


High academic standards, a range of extracurricular activities, small class sizes and individualised attention.
“Excellent”


Positive mindset and concept of ownership imparted to the children regarding their work and learning. Breadth of learning experiences available to the children. High quality support. Very friendly and approachable atmosphere.
“Happy that she is happy!”


The school in our view provides an outstanding learning environment for our daughter. She enjoys every day at Sherborne; and we are happy that she is happy!
“Fantastic School”


My daughters joined Sherborne House school in September 2019 at the start of Year 3. We made the decision to transfer our daughters to this school following what we considered was an inadequate standard of remote teaching following the Covid lockdown in the Spring in our State school. From the outset we were impressed with the standard of teaching and the inclusivity. Our daughters settled in swiftly and built up strong friendship relationships with their classmates. The school is small and this helps provide for a safe inclusive and caring environment. Teacher engagement is fantastic and their door is always open. Reports on your child’s performance and progress are provided in written form each term as well as a 121 parent meeting. We are delighted that we made this decision.
“Sherborne house”


Excellent educational and pastoral care. We have been so impressed by the online teaching provision. Our sons attend year 1 and nursery and i could not be more impressed.
