Radlett Preparatory School is an active and enriching school offering a thorough, well rounded education based on traditional and modern methods, from the early years in the Reception classes to Year Group 6. It provides a diverse range of opportunities where children can develop their skills and talents and learn to interact and relate positively to others.
Situated in thirteen acres of green belt in Hertfordshire, Radlett Preparatory School has a reputation for academic excellence combined with an emphasis upon developing the full potential of each child within a secure and carefully structured framework. The acquisition of academic skills is achieved by blending formal learning with investigative techniques, thereby encouraging the development of independent thought, confidence and self discipline.
Music and drama are thriving areas of the curriculum, and there are frequent concerts and productions for all age groups. Pupils may also have individual music lessons in keyboard, piano, violin, flute, recorder, saxophone, clarinet, drums and guitar, and there are opportunities for children to audition for the School Choir.
There are sporting fixtures against local schools in football, cricket and netball; other activities include hockey, tennis, judo, athletics, gymnastics, golf and fencing.
Applications for entry should be made to the School Secretary when individual tours for parents will be arranged.
Children are assessed for the 4+ entry in November and February for places in the following September. They will join one of the three parallel Reception classes and complete two years in the Infant Department before moving to the Juniors.
Children are prepared for entry at 11+ to a large number of secondary schools both independent and state.
