Give Your Child a Joyful Start at Stonar Prep

Choosing the right school for your child's first steps into education is a monumental decision. You want a place where they feel safe, happy, and inspired to learn. At Stonar Prep, we understand the profound impact of these early years, and our Reception class is specifically designed to provide a truly exceptional foundation – a place where our pupils genuinely achieve with joy.

Our dedicated Prep School fosters a nurturing atmosphere where your child's potential is not just recognised, but actively celebrated. We believe in igniting a love of learning from the get go, building confidence brick by brick, and laying the groundwork for a lifetime of academic excellence.

Why consider Stonar Prep?

A creative curriculum: Our thematic units bring learning to life, sparking curiosity and making connections across different subjects. This approach, driven by the latest well-researched pedagogy, ensures your child is not just learning facts, but developing a deep understanding of the world around them.

Specialist teaching from day one: At Stonar Prep, your child will benefit from specialist teachers in Drama, Art, Languages, Music, and Sport right from Reception. 

Learning beyond the classroom: Our stunning 90-acre countryside campus isn't just a beautiful backdrop; it's an extension of our classroom. With excellent facilities and extensive outdoor play areas, your child will enjoy daily opportunities for outdoor learning.

A vibrant co-curricular life: Our daily co-curricular programme, offering a diverse selection of 20 clubs each term, ensures a deeply enriching education that goes beyond academics. 

Support for busy families: We understand the demands of modern life. Our free, flexible wraparound care, included in school fees, provides peace of mind, allowing you to balance school routines with your other commitments.

Small class sizes mean individualised attention: Small class sizes are at the heart of our Prep School. This ensures your child receives the individual attention they need to flourish, allowing our teachers to truly understand their learning style and provide tailored support.

Access to exceptional facilities: Even our youngest pupils benefit from utilising the whole school's state-of-the-art facilities - including our indoor swimming pool - providing an enriching learning environment unlike any other.

A head start for the future: Starting at Stonar in Reception and following all the way through our Prep School, provides a wonderful familiarity with the whole School, making the transition to our successful Senior School a smooth and positive experience.
