It is the atmosphere of a school which tells prospective parents much about its culture and ethos. No carefully crafted synopsis can ever encapsulate the ‘joie de vivre’ which exists in reality. I would therefore be delighted to introduce you directly to the children and staff of the Preparatory School either during one of our Open Mornings or an individual visit, so you can experience the spirit of the Preparatory School at first hand.

We are committed to delivering a broad and dynamic curriculum, whilst attending to the needs of each individual pupil. High standards are achieved within a nurturing yet inspiring learning environment. The key to success in any school is its ability to treat every child as an individual. Celebrating pupils’ achievements, broadening their horizons, whilst being sensitive to their needs are essential features of the Ardingly experience.
