Academic Excellence
Nurturing Lifelong Learners
We believe that all children can achieve academic success whilst enjoying a full and happy childhood. From the early stages of learning in Reception, we focus on building lifelong learners, offering a broad and exciting curriculum for the liveliest and most enquiring of minds.
Small Class Sizes
Small class sizes of 16 or fewer allow us to follow your child’s questioning, cultivating independent thinking. It also gives us the flexibility to teach core subjects to differentiated small groups.
Learning activities are varied and involve group work and working in pairs as well as individual study. Each child has one-to-one time with their teacher, for literacy and/or numeracy activities every day.
Specialist Teachers to Inspire Your Son
Breadth of curriculum is offered through access to the extensive facilities and specialist teachers at the Prep School. From Art and Drama through to Music and Languages, everything is designed to help for your son to uncover his talents and passions.
Preparing for Prep School
Every term informal reading, writing and maths assessments will be completed in class to ensure your son’s progress is fully monitored. By the time the boys are in Year 2, ready to transition into the main Prep School, they will be equipped with an unbeatable foundation and a thirst for learning more.

Year 2 English Key Objectives
At Lockers Park, adventures beyond the classroom build confidence, resilience and social skills, allowing children to flourish and become well-rounded, happy individuals.
A thriving outdoor life features weekly Nature & Environment lessons, creating a passion for learning through practical enjoyment. From building bug hotels (and studying the guests!) through to creating clay tree spirits, your son will be hands-on with nature, learning what our environment can teach us.
And there’s ample opportunities to let off steam in the school grounds during the school day, building dens in the shrubs and playing on the climbing apparatus.
After school activities include Sport, Art, Music and Drama, Nature Arts & Craft, Gardening, Science Club and Cookery Club, not to mention our own onsite Beavers Colony for Little Lockers boys from Year 2.
