King’s St Alban’s Pre-Prep opens up a world of opportunity to children as they embark on their educational journey. Situated adjacent to the Prep School, the Pre-Preparatory Department combines bright, airy classrooms and a stunning multi-purpose hall with a vibrant, outdoor garden and well-stocked library. Small classes, which each have both a Form Teacher and Teaching Assistant, ensure that each child is nurtured and encouraged to work to the best of their ability whilst having fun and learning creatively. At King’s St Alban’s Pre-Prep staff recognise that children who feel confident in themselves and in their own ability have a head start in learning. All of the children are treated as individuals and are encouraged to explore their gifts and strengths in order to achieve their full potential. What children can do, rather than what they cannot, is the starting point in their learning, and planning is flexible so that children’s individual needs and interests can be followed.

In the Prep School, children in Years 3 to 6 enjoy a stimulating and balanced curriculum; at its heart is the fact that children want to learn and the school wants to feed their natural interest and curiosity. Visitors often comment on the ‘quiet, purposeful atmosphere’ in our classrooms and King’s St Alban’s works hard to ensure all children thrive in their learning. Specialist teachers in science, music, art, DT, French and games lessons ensure children can be inspired by teachers who are passionate about their subject. Form Teachers see the children for most lessons and this relationship, of nurture, care and support, is paramount to each child’s progress. Whilst, our focus on Growth Mindset enables us to model and consider skills such as resilience, curiosity, and reflectiveness.

Making the most of the facilities here at King’s St Alban’s and at King’s Worcester, the senior school pupils not only receive the very best education possible but also develop a real love of learning.
