We are making some exciting changes to the way nursery and pre-school is structured at Banstead Prep, effective from September 2024.

Our ethos remains the same – that our youngest children fully embrace the freedom of independent learning through play within the structure of the school day.  Children will be well prepared for their next educational challenge, ready for Reception and the exciting prep school education beyond.

Pre-school learning will take place in classrooms equipped specifically for early education and following our future focussed curriculum, developed in partnership with Kingston University and designed to spark curiosity, support child led learning and develop future skills.  Phonics, Literacy and Maths is taught in the same way as in the main school.

The children also benefit from the full range of subject specialist teaching and facilities for which Banstead Prep is renowned, and the core timetable includes PE, Music, Languages, STEM and Outdoor Learning.

We also know the time pressures many parents face and, with this in mind, we provide extremely flexible wraparound and sibling care, to ensure a personalised service for each of our families.
