Where happy girls and boys thrive, The Mount Prep School is proud to be Primary School of the Year 2026 in My Local Awards!

The Mount Prep School offers a remarkable education designed to empower young minds, capture imagination and fulfil potential. Our pupils make the most of every opportunity, both inside and outside the classroom, including Forest School in our leafy acres. We are committed to igniting a lifelong love of learning in every child, fostering exploration and creativity so they can confidently make their mark on the world.

The unique ‘Explore, Discover, Create’ topic-led Prep School curriculum is an innovative way of teaching through independent thinking where curiosity leads the way, hand in hand with our vibrant co-curricular opportunities.

This is underpinned by our Quaker ethos where respect, equality, thinking and living adventurously and making a positive contribution to our changing world alongside striving for personal excellence are key values we all live every day.

The Good Schools Guide describes The Mount as, “a place of calm compassion in the heart of the city” and said, “pupils we met spoke eloquently and with confidence from Prep School onward”.

Nothing beats a visit…
