Sevenoaks Prep offers independent advice on which school might best suit your child and knowledge of the full range of senior schools, both local and further afield.
The Headmaster and Director of Studies meet with all parents, usually during the first term in Year 5, to discuss options for the child's future and to begin an ongoing dialogue. The Headmaster, Director of Studies and other key members of staff regularly visit senior schools to gain an up to date understanding of the schools, and senior school staff are regularly invited to Sevenoaks Prep to meet parents including at our biennial Senior Schools' Fair.
A strength of our school is the breadth and quality of senior schools to which we send pupils. We look to challenge our pupils and have scholarship groups for academic subjects and art, and support our pupils through the scholarship process. We have an excellent track record of academic, sport, music and art scholarships and awards to senior schools.
