Our take

Independent boys prep school in Wandsworth for ages 3–13. Selective entry, other ethos.

Best for
Who thrives here
  • Families looking for a prep school covering ages 3–13.
  • Parents who want a single-sex environment for their son.
  • Families who value a other ethos in school life.
  • Children who can demonstrate strong academics at entry assessment — this is a selective school.
Watch-outs
Know before applying
  • Selective entry — assume some form of assessment at the relevant entry point. Plan tutoring or familiarisation early if needed.
  • The other ethos shapes assemblies, holidays and pastoral life. Comfortable for committed families; worth thinking about for those of other or no faith.
  • Single-sex (boys). Comfortable for some children, less so for others — worth a visit on a normal teaching day rather than only an open-day showcase.
