St David's Prep

Welcome to St David’s Prep. As we celebrate over 90 years of our school, we do so with a great deal of pride.

We have a strong academic record and a long history of success in many areas. However, school life at St David’s Prep offers so much more than results and grades. We aim to develop confident, happy children and instil in each one of them a life-long love of learning and an enquiring mind.

Our dedicated staff do their utmost to inspire and challenge all our pupils. They model a positive work ethic and help the children to treat others with respect and kindness.

We believe that the nurturing environment at St David’s allows our children to surpass the goals we set them and to achieve amazing things as they go on to the next stage of their education.

Visitors to our school frequently comment on the warm, family atmosphere, where older pupils look out for the younger ones and lasting friendships are formed.

We would love you to come and visit and get a sense of the range and breadth of opportunities St David’s Prep can offer your children.

Life in Pre-Reception to Year 2 is all about engaging and encouraging the desire to learn. From the start of your child’s school career, our focus is on capturing their imagination and enthusiasm, tapping into their natural energy and curiosity and helping them to become an independent learner.

At St David’s our experienced and committed staff encourage the children to take the first vital steps of their formal education, laying the foundations for a happy and rewarding school life.

Every new day brings its challenges but teaching Pre-Reception children also brings numerous rewards.  We are constantly able to experience things with these youngest children in the school, often for the first time.  Each day brings about new developments, new funny moments and new opportunities to share.  Leading Pre-Reception children at the start of their St David’s journey teaches us to embrace the unexpected parts of life and accept the things we have no control over.  These young children are hilarious, frighteningly honest and amazingly, they still believe in magic!We love our jobs and our aim is to ensure that we give all our children in Pre-Reception a happy and enjoyable experience  An experience that will help them grow and develop into responsible, creative and resilient learners.“
