Our take
Independent co-ed prep school in Newham for ages 2–11. Selective entry, Christian foundation ethos, lower fees than the London average.
- Families looking for a prep school covering ages 2–11.
- Families who prefer a co-educational setting over single-sex.
- Families who value a Christian foundation ethos in school life.
- Children who can demonstrate strong academics at entry assessment — this is a selective school.
- Families looking for an independent option below the London average for fees.
- Selective entry — assume some form of assessment at the relevant entry point. Plan tutoring or familiarisation early if needed.
- The Christian foundation ethos shapes assemblies, holidays and pastoral life. Comfortable for committed families; worth thinking about for those of other or no faith.
- SEND provision isn't documented in our profile. If your child has an EHCP or specific learning needs, ask admissions about case-by-case capacity before applying.
