Prep School

Our ethos and values develop pupils in every respect - to be happy, confident, courteous, independent and ambitious. 

We aim high! We are proud of our academic ambition and aim to stretch every pupil to make the most of their abilities in small groups, whatever the activity. 

Every year Aysgarth sends pupils to selective schools such as Eton, Harrow, Winchester, Rugby and Radley.  From September we look forward to widening the list of schools we sent our pupils to.  Throughout the Prep school years, we work together with families to identify the best future school for their child, proudly witnessing our leavers embark on the next stage of their educational journey at the very finest senior schools.

Although boarding-focused, day pupils are very welcome. Day pupils make up nearly 15- 20% of our pupil population.

But don't just take our word for it, our pastoral care is award-winning, we are a  STEER champion School, 'Prep School of the Year 2019/20'  and our wonderful matron, Miss A was nominated in 2023 for Life Time Achievement Award by Tatler.
