All About Senior Prep

In our Senior Prep (Grades 4 – 7), high academic standards are maintained across our broad-based curriculum. We continue to develop independent and critical thinking skills. We offer specialist subject teaching in Grades 6 and 7, affording our boys the opportunity to prepare for high school education. Where appropriate, technology is used to support and enrich our teaching and transform the learning experiences for our boys. We live in a world where knowledge is easily accessible; our challenge is to educate our boys to interpret and use this information both effectively and responsibly.

A Message from the Head of Senior Prep

Senior Prep at is a time of growth, independence, and emerging leadership. Here, boys are challenged academically, supported emotionally, and encouraged to take ownership of their learning as they prepare for high school.

With a strong focus on critical thinking, character development, and future readiness, our Senior Prep environment helps boys discover their strengths, build confidence, and develop the skills they need to thrive. It is a vibrant, purposeful phase where boys step into responsibility, explore wider opportunities, and begin to understand the young men they are becoming

Senior Prep Curriculum

Our curriculum is constantly evolving as we endeavour to create a curriculum that is relevant and rooted in real-world problems.

We encourage and embrace dynamic classroom approaches throughout the grades, which allow boys to acquire a deeper knowledge through active exploration of real-world challenges. The boys learn through investigation and discovery, and respond to complex questions, challenges, or problems. We strive to deliver engaging and relevant learning opportunities wherever possible.
