Entry Points: Your Son's Journey Starts Here

Choosing the right time to join a new school is a key part of your decision, and we are here to guide you. St. Martin's School has a selective admissions policy and welcomes boys from age 3 to 13. We have carefully structured our entry points to ensure a seamless and supportive transition for every boy, providing them with a strong foundation for a bright future.

Below, you will find a guide to our main entry points. For specific questions about availability or to discuss an admissions, please contact our Admissions Office.

Nursery (Ages 3 & 4)

Our Nursery is the perfect first step in a St. Martin's education. Boys join us from age 3 into a warm and nurturing environment where the focus is on child-led learning and exploration. We believe that happy children learn better, and our Nursery provides a joyful foundation for building confidence and a love of learning.

Prep (Ages 7-11: Year 3, 4, 5 & 6)

The Prep years are where boys become more independent and begin to take full advantage of our broad curriculum and extensive range of extracurricular activities. This is a key stage where we equip them with the skills and attitudes that will enable them to succeed in all they choose to do, from academic subjects to competitive sports.

Senior Prep (Ages 11-13: Year 7 & Year 8)

Our Senior Prep provides a crucial two-year period that is strategically designed to prepare our boys for entry into their chosen senior school. This stage is our commitment to ensuring that every boy is "better prepared" for the next step in their learning journey and in their individual lives.

Our impressive record of leavers' destinations, including a significant number of boys who progress to prestigious senior schools like Harrow, Eton and John Lyon School, is a testament to the success of this two-year program.
