The Prep Way
Our Prep Way is a bold vision for an elevated Prep School that offers unparalleled opportunities for our younger pupils to flourish. Our aim is to provide quality and breadth of curricular and co-curricular opportunity that is undoubtedly exceptional and which provides a perfect transition to our county-leading Senior School.
Your child’s time at school is precious, it is important, and it should be remarkable. Education is fundamental to our lives, and we strive to provide an experience that is exceptional and unparalleled in terms of its breadth, depth and quality and strive to provide opportunities for our pupils to develop inside and outside the classroom.
Our school community is unique, warm, fun and supportive and we have high aspirations for all of our pupils. Our pupils have unrivalled access to superb facilities throughout the Prep School, which we believe helps to stimulate their curiosities in a progressive and inspiring learning environment.
Through innovative teaching, exceptional facilities, and a desire to go above and beyond the norm, an educational experience at NULS Prep is the vehicle to equip your child with the skills and abilities they need to progress to later stages of education and to prepare them for a lifetime of discovery.
Pastoral Care
We pride ourselves on getting to know our children as individuals, sharing in their triumphs and frustrations, guiding them as they negotiate their way through this stage of their educational journey. Pastoral care is a vital aspect of School life.
We believe in the development of the whole pupil and it is our aim to ensure that every pupil leaves NULS Prep feeling comfortable with themselves, and with the emotional strength and ability to make life choices that serve them well. Form teachers are there to keep a close eye on the well-being and personal development of each child, communicating with parents regularly to ensure the home-school partnership is as strong as possible. We believe we have a responsibility to help shape children’s characters as well as their minds and we have high expectations in terms of behaviour and manners.
Support for Learning
In our Prep School, we recognise that all of our pupils sometimes need support in their learning. Our Teachers, Teaching Assistants and specialist Support for Learning staff take into account the wealth of factors that can influence the way a young person learns and make adaptations to lessons and activities as needed.
We are an inclusive community and understanding the neurodiversity and physical needs of our pupils is at the heart of our practice.
Our Support for Learning Co-ordinator is always available to work with parents as we make sure that every child has access to the best learning and co-curricular opportunities.
Super-Curricular
Super-curricular activities are an incredibly important part of our offer and they seamlessly enhance the educational experience of our pupils through programmes such as Pre-Med Junior, Prep Adventures, Chess etc.
