This approach helps staff identify misconceptions early and provide the right support at the right time.

A balanced and enriching prep journey
Specialist Teaching
From Prep 5 onwards, children benefit from specialist teaching in PE, Music, Science, Art and French, while class teachers guide them through the remainder of the curriculum. This balance allows pupils to build strong relationships with their form teacher while gaining fresh inspiration from subject specialists.
Trips & Enrichment
Our Prep children enjoy an active and exciting curriculum. Sport is a particular strength, with superb facilities at Silksworth where pupils take part in tennis, swimming, skiing, athletics and football, supported by specialist sports coaches.
Every term includes an educational trip linked to classroom learning, helping pupils deepen their understanding through hands on experiences.
Our approach to learning
Our approach is rooted in family values and the belief that every child is on their own journey. We focus on secure progress in core subjects, personal development and a broad curriculum that allows pupils’ strengths to shine. Continuity of staff means teachers know each child well, including their talents and the areas they need help with.
