Pastorally, this is a smaller school and there is much that comes with this that makes the children’s experiences so special. Academically, high quality, creative teaching is the norm. The teaching team here are all committed to providing a curriculum that is both challenging and ever-engaging. We are thrilled with our pupils’ outcomes in Year 6. Bassett pupils head happily off to some of London’s most academically-selective senior schools, and also to those schools that are perhaps less academically-selective, but where both parents and child are delighted with the outcome.
Bassett House School suits: Families looking for a prep school covering ages 2–11; Families who prefer a co-educational setting over single-sex; Families who would rather not put their child through a selective entrance assessment.
