PREP

Independent preparatory schools do not have to follow the National Curriculum or submit test results to the Department for Education so there is no individual school performance data or star rating.

Visit the school's website to learn more about their unique curriculum, policies on testing and common leaver destinations (a good indicator of pupil progress). See our About page for information on Choosing A Prep School.

School Description

The school aims for pupils to be ‘British Muslim Citizens of the UK who give back to their society’. It does this well. Pupils develop a consistently strong understanding of fundamental British values and the important role that they are expected to play within these. The school is happy and cohesive. Relationships between staff and pupils are positive. Pupils are well-cared for. In return, they behave well. The school expects pupils to achieve highly. By the time that they leave the school, this expectation is realised. The schools’ ‘HEART’ values are commonly understood. They underpin everything that happens. Pupils understand how these values help them to be honest, aspirational, resilient and thankful. Pupils value the opportunities that the school provides. They look forward to the Friday ‘enrichment’ activities where they can try out new things, working alongside new people. Pupils are proud of their roles of school and eco-councillors. Staff, pupils and the vast majority of parents and carers are positive about the school. One parent summed up many when they said, ‘The school provides a nurturing and supportive environment where children feel safe, happy, and encouraged to do their best.’
