nurturing curious minds

The Study is a creative school. From the way core academic subjects are taught to the very real emphasis we place on nurturing creative talent, our innovative approach to education is designed to encourage a natural curiosity and provide our girls with the best foundation for lifelong learning.

Academic excellence at The Study

A warm, open and happy space to learn

While we place a clear focus on academic achievement, we believe education means so much more than 11+ results. Through a nurturing environment we strive to ensure each and every girl gets the individual care they need to feel valued and to flourish. We champion the importance of emotional wellbeing, kindness, friendship and respect for others.

Curious

There’s no such thing as a silly question at The Study Prep. We encourage pupils to pursue their curiosity at every turn, always asking questions and never being afraid to challenge, speak up and be inquisitive.

Creative

Above all else we aim to help our girls embrace creativity in everything they do, from problem solving and critical thinking to decision making. Study Prep pupils are encouraged to be imaginative and inventive – prepared to try something new and not scared to make mistakes.

Courageous

At The Study, our girls learn to try new things and take risks, to have the self-belief to be different and the resilience to overcome setbacks. We guide them in learning to have the integrity to be true to themselves and the confidence to pursue their dreams.

“The loving, nurturing and caring ethos in the school is something very special. We chose The Study because its warmth matched our daughter’s personality.”

Year 4 parent

“The Study has offered a wonderful school experience for both my daughters, who have flourished thanks to the school’s careful mix of encouragement and challenges.”

Year 6 parent

“The children here struck us as articulate, loved, personable, relaxed, comfortable with themselves and others and, above all, completely and superlatively themselves. And that, surely, is what real girl power is all about?”
