Children progress to the Prep School at 7+, and a small number of pupils join us at this stage from other schools, if space is available.\u00a0<\/p>\n

There are six year groups in the Prep and we have no more than 20 pupils in each class.<\/p>\n

In Years 3 and 4 children are predominantly taught by class teachers, with subject specialists in French, Art, Music, DT, computing and PE.\u00a0<\/p>\n

All the elements of the new National Curriculum are covered with particular emphasis on core subjects. From Year 5, most of a child\u2019s weekly timetable is taught by subject specialists. Pupils\u2019 learning is very carefully monitored by subject staff, form teachers and the Head Teacher. There are twice-yearly reports and twice-yearly parents\u2019 meetings, but parents are encouraged to discuss their child\u2019s work at any time in the school year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The school is divided into four houses, and house points provide a highly motivating reward system for the pupils. Rewards are given for effort as well as achievement and for success in co-curricular areas such as Sport and Music.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The teaching is great. It’s challenging and very interesting and makes us think differently as learners. With the small classes, it helps us to set into our own pace of learning. All the lessons and opportunities – it’s perfect.\u00a0<\/p>\n
