Early Years

Early Years includes Nursery and Reception classes. The girls benefit from a child-centred approach to learning and a rich mix of child and adult directed activities, set within bright and attractive rooms, and with wonderful outside space.

Prep

Central to everything we do in Prep is our belief that every child is an individual who is herself a gift, with her own strengths and talents. Our broad, balanced and challenging curriculum ensures that all our pupils make excellent progress academically while ensuring that they thrive in a nurturing and caring environment.
