Welcome to Clifton

At Clifton Pre-prep we aim to give your child a stimulating start to their school life.

We value the traditions of the past whilst being a forward thinking school. We have bright, well resourced classrooms with networked computers and interactive whiteboards in all teaching areas; we also have a dedicated ICT suite. Children are given a solid grounding in the core subjects and we offer a broad curriculum with a wealth of educational experiences. Music, Drama, French, PE and Swimming are all taught by specialist teachers. We feel that it is important to maintain a high standard of display around the school so that the children see we value their work - the Superstars board in the atrium is changed weekly and the children have a chance to see their work on display in a special place.

One of the joys of being part of a group of schools on the same site is being able to watch our pupils progress through the three parts…this helps reinforce our sense of community - of being one family. Many of the sixth formers who started their school life at CPS come back to help as part of their community service.

I would be delighted to show you round CPS to give you the opportunity to see for yourself how our school gives the best possible start to your child’s education.
