AKS Nursery & Prep School

Nursery supports children in the early years, and Prep provides the next stage of education through the primary years. Admissions can advise on the best entry point for your child.

Yes. Families are encouraged to visit so you can meet the team, see the setting, and ask questions before making an application.

The first step is usually to arrange a visit. Admissions will then guide you through the application process and the next steps.

Nursery focuses on early development and learning through play, while Prep builds strong foundations across a broader curriculum and prepares pupils for Senior School.

Transition is supported carefully so children feel confident moving into the next stage. Staff work closely with families to ensure children settle well and feel prepared.

Prep builds strong academic and personal foundations so pupils are ready for the next stage. As pupils approach transition, support is in place to help them feel familiar with routines and expectations. Our Year 7 transition programme is extensive with plenty of opportunities for pupils to make friends and get to know the senior school environment before starting Year 7.

Fees information is available on the Fees page. Admissions can help with any questions and the most relevant entry route for your child.

The Admissions team is the best contact for questions about joining Nursery or Prep and can advise on visits, availability, and next steps.
