The Pre-Prep Department provides a happy and secure environment for children aged between 4 and 7, developing the foundations which will underpin their future school careers. Most important is inspiring a love of learning so that children are excited about the learning opportunities available to them each day.
CREATIVE CURRICULUM
Freedom
Children are taught using a ‘creative curriculum’ approach, which allows each subject to link and be drawn out of the termly or half termly topic. The freedom for a teacher to follow a child’s individual line of enquiry allows for a unique and rewarding educational journey.
The size of the classes is kept small to enable every child to be nurtured. The children are taught by experienced and inspirational teachers, supported by a team of teaching assistants. In Reception, each class has a class teacher and dedicated teaching assistant. We offer specialist teaching in French, PE, Music and Games from Reception. This ensures that every child receives individual care and attention, both academically and pastorally.
Outside the Classroom
Children learn a sense of community through our charity projects, meet members of the wider community through our busy programme of special visitors, and can try many activities through our club programme, including:
- Royal Academy Ballet
- Sign Language
- Maraca Madness!
The Whole Child
Underpinning the Pre-Prep’s approach to education is the development of the ‘whole child’, which aims to prepare positive, confident and resilient students.
We provide an environment where effort is always rewarded, in which children feel safe and happy to experiment, explore, and achieve their very best.
