As Head of Wellingborough Prep School, I am delighted to provide you with an insight into the fantastic activities and opportunities offered at the School.
Whether this is your first experience of the School or if you have visited before, the ethos of the School is clear to see from our wonderful pupils and staff.
The following pages will give you a flavour of what to expect at the School, including the extensive range of opportunities available for pupils both inside and outside of the classroom. However, nothing can match the experience of actually visiting, seeing and feeling for yourself the friendly atmosphere and enthusiasm for learning that I believe pervades from the moment your child joins us.
I would be delighted to show you round and provide an opportunity for you to meet my colleagues and our pupils.
Pupils’ attitude to learning are excellent. They concentrate hard, question enthusiastically and are keen to improve their work and hone their skills.
