Junior school

As the boys move from Pre-Prep into Year 3, they are joined by new pupils from our feeder schools, to make three classes of a maximum of 18 boys in each. The Year 3 and 4 groups make up the Junior School.

The boys begin to take part in competitive sports and are involved in inter-school fixtures. There is a Junior Production involving all the boys at Christmas time and a concert in the Summer Term. Throughout the year outings related to many subjects are organised. In addition, to enhance the boys learning and enrich the curriculum, guest speakers or theatre companies visit the school. 

All Junior boys have the opportunity to attend a week-end residential activity centre in the summer term.

The boys are based in their own form room with their form tutor who is also responsible for their pastoral care. This provides them with a secure foundation. The majority of the subjects are taught by the form teacher, with some input from other members of the Junior Department. For Music, French, PE and Games the boys are taught in the appropriate room by specialist teachers. 

During these two years the boys are encouraged to become more independent by taking on greater responsibility and by developing their own organisational skills.
