The Pre-Prep is located in The Moat, a unique, purpose built building, which was opened in the spring of 2003. The Moat is a modern, bright and stimulating environment juxtaposed to the more historic buildings of the Junior Department and the cathedral itself.
Within each year group there are two or three parallel classes. The class sizes are small, a maximum of 15 for Reception classes risng to 16 for Years 1 and 2, providing children with the opportunity for greater individual attention.
Our aim in the Pre-Prep is to provide the best possible start in education. High quality teaching, combined with excellent pastoral care, ensures that these first vital steps are taken with confidence.
Staff support and extend the children's learning through carefully planned experiences and learning opportunities, so that each child develops their potential. Children are both confident and enthusiastic in a secure and happy environment.
The curriculum encompasses Numeracy, Literacy, Science, ICT, Humanities, Creative Arts, Religious Education and Physical Education. Specialist teachers enhance the curriculum in French, Music and Physical Education from Reception.
