Welcome to Wandsworth Preparatory School! We are a close knit community driven by a shared vision and unwavering commitment to excellence.Β Our small school is nestled near the edge of Wandsworth Common and the children benefit greatly from the beautiful natural environment surrounding our school.
At Wandsworth Preparatory, our vision is clear: we aspire for our pupils to be confident individuals with a real passion for learning. We champion academic success alongside the development of character, fostering a deep-rooted respect and empathy for others. Pupils at our school are happy to take risks, try new things and hone their skills and talents.
“My teacher is lovely.
She always helps me and gives me tips to work things out on my own.
She plans exciting projects and teaches them in a fun way.”
”Not only has my son made excellent progress in both English and Maths but I also love that he spends time learning outside in the Forest. I truly believe that Forest School contributes to his general good health and well-being.”
“Wandsworth Prep provides a fantastic curriculum which makes the children very enthusiastic about learning. We were very impressed with the end of term delivery of the projects and to see the active engagement of the children. Forest School is a definite positive as the children love being outdoors and learning at the same time.”
π A brilliant week of learning, exploring and giving back after our half term break. Hereβs what weβve been up toβ¦
