REPTON PREP SCHOOL
Where Potential Becomes Achievement

Repton Prep School is a nurturing and vibrant community that provides a world-class education for pupils aged 3–13.
With a blend of traditional values and modern learning approaches, we focus on developing the whole child—academically, physically, and emotionally.

A WARM WELCOME from OUR HEAD

Here at Repton Prep School, we foster a positive culture of balance. 

Each child is given the tools and support to develop a rounded character - not just in terms of interests, but emotionally, socially and in their sense of joy and wellbeing. Our children have the freedom to explore beyond the classroom and benefit from collaboration across a broad range of subjects. 

We invest in inspirational teachers who have everything they need to stoke the fire of each and every child’s enthusiasm; whether inside the classroom or den-building in our woodlands. From building an electric car in our GreenPower workshop to solving mysteries using forensic science, and from filling our grounds with the rich symphony of a full-sized orchestra to diving into our warm indoor pool, every pupil has the opportunity to develop and grow as an individual.

OUR FIVE PILLARS: THE FOUNDATION
of a REPTON EDUCATION

The sense of balance that every Reptonian benefits from is shaped by our five pillars: Pastoral Care; Academia; Sport; Extra Curricular and our Spirit of Place. At Repton Prep, pupils achieve in the classroom because they never have to prioritise academic achievement over their love of theatre, their aptitude for sport or their passion for music. Our passionate and dedicated teaching and coaching staff are on-hand to provide pupils with guidance, support and expertise at any time.

What our parents say about Repton Prep

“The school's greatest strength is its staff. Their enthusiasm, kindness and care is endless! They go above and beyond every single day to give the children a really fun learning experience; from turning the tables over for the children to practice their 'caveman painting' to learning about tectonic plates with Oreo biscuits, the lessons are very engaging and the staff are fantastic!”
