Notre Dame Preparatory School is a leading, independent and inclusive school for Nursery age children and pupils in Reception through to Year 6. We provide a well-rounded, forward looking education, in a safe and supportive learning environment that prepares children for their futures beyond primary education.

Established in 1864, Notre Dame Prep has a long heritage of success, and maintains the highest standards across every aspect of our school. There are no entrance examinations, and no religious requirement to join our community - we welcome families of all faiths, or none at all.

We warmly invite you to visit Notre Dame Prep to discover everything that we can offer your child. There's no better way to get a sense of the school's ethos of care, creativity and community than to see it for yourself!

Happy, creative children who love to learn

Our school prides itself on feeling like family and our Catholic ethos fully supports this. With small class sizes, our teachers and support staff really get to know the children and families in our school community, and children (and parents) form close friendships as they grow through the years.

Our school curriculum, designed to build skills and creativity, embraces modern

teaching methods to foster a warm and supportive learning environment. Our

academic results are excellent, but this doesn’t tell you everything about our school. Our children are also artists, scientists, musicians, historians and athletes, and we are committed to delivering expert teaching across all of these curriculum areas.

At Notre Dame Prep, our holistic approach gives our children a safe and nurturing foundation, allowing them to focus on what matters most.

Our primary goal is for our children to be happy, caring individuals who are engaged in their learning, which we see so clearly as our children transition

to high school as confident, well-rounded young people.
