Welcome to Pre-Prep

The motivation to learn is a powerful force and one we champion and channel without limit. Young children are innately curious and eager to explore – so we make the most of it!

We nurture a love of learning, encourage children to be confident in asking questions, fearless in making mistakes and excited and ambitious when branching out to broaden their horizons and reach their potential.

Happy, balanced and grounded children can seize life with both hands and make the most of every opportunity. The journey towards a life-long love of learning, the wisdom from which to enrich the world around them and the kindness to generously give back, starts here.

Fundamental to our success is the value we place on parent partnership and individualised care. We see progression at Cumnor as a collective endeavour; you can see and feel the strength of our community on a daily basis.

We believe the unique magic of childhood should be treasured and celebrated. Please don’t just take our word for it; come and see us, we would be delighted to see you!

Discover a learning adventure

The Early Years at Cumnor are the stepping stones where early learnings are reinforced, and new habits are created for life. We think of it as an adventure, and like all adventures, every path will be different.

Experience & expertise

We are experts in child development and pastoral care is central to all we do. We provide highly individualised care so our children feel understood. From this, their learning will flourish.

It’s hard to imagine childhood being anything but golden and idyllic here.
