Sherborne Preparatory School

Dorset Echo:

Sherborne Prep is a gem of a school. A warm community with adventure, fun and a big heart, oh and an annual fiercely fought annual conker championships. A sense of excited chatter oozes from the school as a feast of cartwheels, spontaneous cricket games (staff and pupils) and healthy snacks punctuate break times – of which there are many in its jam-packed day.

Sherborne Prep is in the centre of beautiful Sherborne and parents love to drop their little ones and have a cuppa at the Hub café, where new parents are warmly welcomed into the community. With boutique shops and a wealth of independent cafes never mind the incredibly impressive Sherborne Abbey, Sherborne Prep has an enviable location and is quite simply, a school not to miss!
