School Overview
Selecting the right school for your son is one of the most important decisions you will make for him. At Aldwickbury School we offer a high quality education for boys within a happy, challenging, supportive and caring environment. Our ethos encourages the boys to have high aspirations and helps them to confidently make the transition to a wide range of senior schools.
Our Pre-Prep and Prep boys school in Harpenden, Hertfordshire is a vibrant and dynamic community, linking consistency and tradition with all that is best about modern educational practice. For 75 years, we have continued to provide our boys with a comprehensive range of opportunities; developing our modern, fully-resourced facilities including a superb new school hall and music school, which were opened recently.
So, what is it that makes Aldwickbury unique? We are a very well-established and successful school, with extremely professional and dedicated staff. Most of our boys feel at home here from the very first day and we can assure you that your son will be educated, encouraged and nurtured and have the very best possible time that a boy can have at school.
Aldwickbury focuses on high academic standards, realistic expectations and, as a boys private Christian school, embraces the spiritual, moral, social and cultural development of the boys. The curriculum is broad, balanced and relevant, with a daily programme of Physical Education and Games, as well as specialist teaching.
For boys, aged 4-7 years, the purpose-built Pre-Prep Department is a happy, purposeful, friendly environment, with a safe and secure play area within the extensive grounds.
The quality of boarding at Aldwickbury is excellent, contributing much to the all-round educational experience offered by the School. From Year 5, flexible boarding is available, providing the opportunity to experience living at the School, before moving on to senior school.
We are very proud of our achievements, involvement in the community and approach to education. The best way to get a flavour of life here is to visit the School. Whether you are looking for a place in Pre-Prep, or further up the School, we look forward to welcoming you to Aldwickbury and answering your questions.
