Lockers Park is a purpose built independent preparatory school and a Charitable Trust administered by a board of Governors. It is a traditional boys only preparatory school which enables youngsters from a fairly wide ability range to achieve all round success within the concept of a friendly, vibrant family atmosphere where everybody knows everybody and there is a strong boarding school ethos.
It is located in 23 acres of attractive parkland on the fringe of Hemel Hempstead. Hence it has excellent rail links to London and elsewhere. The M1 and M25 give ready access to London's four airports - Heathrow, Gatwick, Stansted and Luton, so the School is accustomed to providing the necessary help and support to parents living abroad.
The original school buildings date from 1874 but, especially in the last two decades, there has been a steady process of modernisation and development so that Lockers Park has first class all round educational facilities. The recently opened Mountbatten Centre provides eight excellent specialist rooms including the very latest in computer technology. The average size of class is 14 and in house remedial support is available if necessary. Excellent exam results are achieved, including regular academic and music scholarships to top Public Schools.
Over the last ten years Lockers Park boys have moved on to 45 different Senior Schools and this diversity reflects the attention given by the Headmasters to advising and recommending the right school for the child.
The School is well known for the quality of its Music Department and its excellent record on the games field. There is a concert hall seating over 200 and a wide range of sports facilities which include a nine-hole golf course, three all weather tennis courts, shooting range, heated outdoor swimming pool, two squash courts and a large Sports Hall. The aim is to provide coaching and opportunities for all, whatever their ability.
