The School welcomes children in Nursery, Reception and Year 3 as main entry points, with scholarships from Year 3. Admissions at other stages are also possible, subject to availability. While we genuinely believe in educating the 'whole' child, our primary focus is providing an excellent academic foundation while nurturing a love for learning at an early age, Our results speak for themselves, with a significant number of pupils gaining places at academically selective schools at 11+, often with scholarships and awards for academic performance as well as for sport, music and art. Our outstanding 11+ results are achieved with a balanced, stress-free approach, reflecting our focus on the all-round learning journey.
