A very warm welcome to The Prep School

There is no ‘one size fits all’ approach at The Prep School, spanning Years 4–8. Each child is considered and treated as an individual with a unique profile of skills, passions, talents and undiscovered potential.

We have 3 aims at The Prep and they are the same for pupils, parents and staff; Aim High, Be Kind, Be Brave.

Jim Walton Headmaster of the Preparatory School
