We also offer scholarships to children entering in Year 7 who demonstrate outstanding talent in one or more of the following areas:
From the Nursery all the way up to Sixth Form, we nurture a culture of mutual respect where every idea has value and possibilities and where pupils learn first hand, that hard work and perseverance lead to better outcomes. We understand that the needs, aims and aspirations of Senior School students approaching their GCSE years and the world of work are very different from those of the children in the Prep School, but many of our Prep School teachers have trained and worked in secondary education, so they are extremely knowledgeable about the challenges that lie ahead. By knowing each child so well and by working closely with the teaching and pastoral leads at the senior school, the Prep School team are able to ensure that by the time children reach Year 8, they are able to quickly adjust to their new senior school routines, and make swift progress in and outside the classroom.
We are part of a global group of schools.
The International Schools Partnership is a focused, growing and financially secure group of schools located
within 11 countries in Europe, The Americas, The Middle East and Southeast Asia.
