Cable House aims to give as wide an education as possible to girls and boys between the ages of three and eleven years. The school is divided into two parts - the junior part for children up to seven years of age, when those going on to preparatory schools will leave and join the school of their parents' choice - the senior part, housed in Orchard House, will educate those children who will be leaving at 11 years of age to continue their education at local independent day schools.
The fundamentals of learning are taught from the earliest age and each child progresses according to his or her own ability.
Every day each child in the junior school reads, writes and does number work before any other activities are tackled. All children in both parts of the school are expected to swim on Monday afternoon at the Indoor Pool - a coach transports them to and fro. In Orchard House the senior part of the school works at Maths and English every day - other subjects taught include Geography, History, Elementary Science and Biology, French, Computing, Football, Rugby, Cricket, Netball, Rounders, Hockey, Drama, Singing, and a weekly visit to the Leisure Centre.
Dancing takes place for those pupils who wish to have lessons, private piano and recorder lessons are also available. Music is an important part of the children's lives at school. Small forms are a feature of Cable House.
At Cable House, it is our aim to ensure that every child enjoys their time with us, for unless children are happy, they will not achieve their full potential, both at work and at play.
