Wandsworth Preparatory School seeks to sketch a roadmap to future success, instilling a growth mindset from the minute children walk in the door.
High academic standards are achieved under supportive and well-qualified teaching staff. Our pupils are encouraged to develop as individuals with different abilities, tastes and interests, with a “can-do” attitude without neglecting the need for respect for others and core values.
A full range of academic pursuits and extra-curricular activities are open to all pupils.

🧗♂️ Our climbing enrichment @parthianclimbing is back this Spring!
All the children have already been challenging themselves and have been absolutely amazing to watch. Over the rest of the half term, they’ll be honing their clipping, climbing and bouldering skills building ...strength and confidence along the way.
A fantastic opportunity for all the children of all ages to develop new skills in a supportive environment 🧗

From break on the common next to the school, to forest school at Wimbledon Common, swimming at The Latchmere centre @latchmere_lc_ , PE at Wandle Recreation ...@wandlerec , external school fixtures and enrichment opportunities like climbing @parthianclimbing at Southside. Our local area is an extension of our classroom 🧗♂️ 🌳 🏊 ⚽️

🏫 As part of our ‘schools days’ topic, Year 1 were transported back to 1899 this morning for their memorable experience to explore first-hand what a Victorian classroom might have been like.
Memorable experiences are planned at the start of the term to spark curiosity and excite the... children about their learning in the weeks ahead.
The children explored different parts of the Victorian curriculum and learned what life was like for the children at the time, including the fact that many children didn’t go to school as they had to work. The children were also fascinated to see some of the Victorian punishments for misbehaviour!
Thanks to @freshwater_education for a brilliant experience that brought history to life and for such an enjoyable memorable experience.
