Davenies is a thriving IAPS day school for boys aged 4–13. Our ethos and philosophy enable the boys to make the most of their preparatory years, supported by high-quality pastoral care, a broad and stimulating curriculum and numerous extracurricular opportunities.
Davenies has its own distinct character and from their earliest years children are encouraged to relish the learning experience.
We are committed to an education both in and out of the classroom, thereby enabling the academic, artistic, musical, creative and physical potential of each child to flourish. The school environment is a warm, caring and happy one, where self-esteem is nurtured and grown; we believe that by fostering a wide range of interests and passions we provide the boys with every opportunity to develop in confidence. Our high-quality teachers have an excellent track record of preparing children for life at the country’s leading senior schools and beyond.
Enterprises such as unique Davenies Award Scheme and the permeation of technology in our teaching and learning ensure we offer a truly independent educational experience.
At Davenies, our outstanding facilities support us in providing a positive learning experience with our own language of learning that nurtures each boy’s understanding of how he learns. Davenies’ boys are polite and friendly with their own individual characters, personalities, passions and interests.
Davenies offers a wide range of scholarships to those boys who display an outstanding talent. Exhibitions are also available for individuals who show tremendous potential in their chosen area. Areas where awards are offered include Academic, Music, Sport, Art, Drama and Design and Technology. As well as the accolade of receiving a scholarship, there is a fee remission of 10% from the published school fees, and an Exhibition receives a remission of £300 per term. Successful candidates are automatically enrolled onto our Gifted and Talented programme, which aims to help boys flourish within their specific talent.
The Governors of Davenies are committed to broadening access to the School in Years 7 and 8 by offering to eligible parents/guardians means-tested financial support with the payment of school fees. Bursaries may be awarded in the form of a discount of up to 85% on tuition fees payable, depending on the financial, compassionate or other pertinent circumstances of applicants. The child’s suitability for the school is the first consideration in granting support.
Charitable status. Beaconsfield Educational Trust Ltd is a Registered Charity, number 313120. It exists to provide high standards and the fulfilment of each child’s potential.
