The Prep Forms, Key Stage 2 (7-11 year olds)

Work in the Prep forms is studied via a subject based timetable, with specialist teaching. Further subjects introduced at this level are French and Drama, with Latin being learned in the final Prep year.

Written homework begins here, with a gentle start in Prep I (7/8 years). Parents are asked to help the school by checking the child's Homework Diary each day. Reading, spelling and the learning of tables continues.

School examinations take place twice a year followed by Parents' Evenings to discuss results and general progress.

Preparation for entrance examinations at 11+ to day schools is included in the schemes of work. Parents are invited to join the Headmaster for discussion on future schooling during this time.
