Brabyns Prep School & Nursery

At Brabyns Preparatory School and Nursery we pride ourselves on our warm family atmosphere in which all children are valued as individuals and are encouraged and inspired to reach their full potential within a disciplined yet caring environment.

We are committed to offering a first-class academic education within a forward-thinking and dynamic curriculum, in a way that is rewarding and engaging for children, parents and staff.

We offer a rich and diverse experience for the whole school community including a wide range of academic, sporting, language and performing arts opportunities, plus an extensive extra-curricular programme. Our ‘Forest School’ provides a lovely bridge between formal and informal learning, equipping the children with the skills they need to face uncertainty and change with courage and resilience.

head’s welcome
Brabyns Nursery
At Brabyns, we have a long history of providing outstanding education. We believe that learning for young children should be a nurturing, rewarding and enjoyable experience in which they are able to explore, create and discover in a secure and happy environment.
School Holiday Provision
Brabyns’ Non Term Time provision enables us to provide holiday care, offering action-packed, fun-filled days for children aged 2 to 11 during the school holidays.
Senior School Preparation
The choice of senior school is hugely important and one which we take seriously. The staff at Brabyns have a wealth of experience in supporting and guiding families to choose the right senior school for their children, and preparing them for that process.

A Unique Learning Environment

At Brabyns, we are committed to providing each and every pupil with a stimulating and supportive learning environment which celebrates their unique character and capabilities, allows them to be themselves and enables them to achieve to the best of their ability.
AIMS & VISION

“At Brabyns there is a strong sense of community, with everyone caring for the whole school. It is a kind, inclusive and safe environment, whatever your child’s ability, and your child’s confidence will be built throughout their time at school.”

Extra
Curricular

We firmly believe that the wider curriculum is just as important as the core curriculum in class. Developing the ‘whole-child’ is an essential part of the school’s role. We do this in a variety of ways, by supplementing the curriculum with trips and visitor workshops as well as residentials for children from Year 1-6.
